Thank god they never retired this beautiful barrel of pork. Turns out being a low, slow, flying tank is a really shit decision when everything from drones to a boxtruck has a MANPAD in the cupholder. But they were all supposed to be blown up within 72 hours of facing a peer adversary, 40 years ago, so really i guess its mission accomplished.
Sounds like the war is going well
Warthog is a ground support aircraft. Flies low altitude and provides cover fire for infantry, at least that’s its traditional role. Why was it deployed to Hormuz? Are they planning a ground invasion?
Was allegedly involved in search and rescue mission for the crew of the plane shot down earlier today
Battle for Britain all over.
Remember when Trump first took office and Kegsbreath fired or forced retirement of a slew of Pentagon brass as DEI hires? I wonder who he fired and replaced with a sycophant dumb enough to fly an A10 in an area that has seen F15s and F35s shot down? “Oh my, they blew up our M1 tanks, so lets send in a couple 1970’s school buses and see what happens.”
Just another malfunction /s
Another pig in the blanket of earth.
Yummy!
Of course there are considerations for whether this is advantageous for Iran rather than letting the plane strafe US land forces (/s)
Hog down.
I love being right
