Default Re: Jets & Planes but no UAV's here.

Yeah the Air Force didn't really want the A-10 to start with and has been trying to get rind of it forever.

I recall after Gulf I they pointed out how many A-10s were damaged/shot down as "proof" the aircraft was useless and obsolete, while of course neglecting to mention the number of sorties flown or the amount of confirmed damage done.
