Shout out to Echo-Six Sierra for suggesting the front design and explaining its significance to the A-10. Sorry, but it's not my story to tell. Ask a JTAC.
There isn't a sweeter sound in the world, when you're downrange. But the U.S. Air Force is retiring the A-10 "Warthog," a dedicated close air support aircraft beloved by ground troops for its effectiveness in combat.
Despite its proven track record in conflicts like the Gulf War, Iraq, and Afghanistan, the A-10 is being phased out, with 42 aircraft set to retire this year [2024] and the remaining 260 in the coming years [by 2029].
This move reflects the Air Force's shift away from close air support missions, despite concerns that replacements like the F-35 lack the same capabilities and training. The loss of the A-10 and its specialized pilot culture poses a risk to future ground troops who rely on effective air support.
