Not many explosions, but towards the end the A-10 does a couple of passes. Again, no real big explosions for you to see, but I love that flying fart canon.

That A-10 is fantastic.   The Air Force keeps trying to retire it.  I say let the Army have it.

They may be getting rid of the A-10 unit here in Arkansas and giving them unmanned drones. 188th fighter group may get the axe.

I was an A-10 Crew Chief for nine years. I hate to see them go.

Noticed there wasn't much fire coming from the insurgents after the first couple passes.

The ROK has never had them. The USAF AFRC and ANG are the only users.

Su-25? Besides having a less impressive gun and engines being located near each other, in every other category, it performs better or about the same as the A-10.
