Great video! The A-10 never gets old, also I’m curious about one idea. I don’t know if this has happened before but I’m curious to see what would happen in a Su-57 vs J-20 in a BVR scenario, it would be interesting since I don’t think this has happened on this channel yet. Still keep up the great work!

Love the cheering from the friendly forces at the end. 👍

2200+ hours in the A-10 and counting. Love the Hog content on your channel. It’s awesome to see a “civilian” do things that we Hog Drivers would like to do, but aren’t permitted to do. I’d love to try my hand at the A-10 on DCS! Love the channel!

"There are many airplanes that have guns, but the A-10 is a gun that has a plane." - Voltaire (probably)

From the ground an A-10's gun sounds like some kind of brass instrument doing little stabs of the most evil dissonant note you can play

Truck driver: *singing* We got a little 'ol convoy driving through the nigh... A-10 Pilot: No you don't.

The A-10 is like a tractor. It doesn't go fast but it can carry as much as you can load on it and still reach its max speed.

The fly-by at the end was the perfect way to end the video. Also loved the troops cheering.

Watching the A-10 completely anihalate anything in it's way is deff entertaining but I think the best part of this while video is the fly by at the end. The A-10 is ground forces saving grace.

Like hell it is. It's just that the ground forces are easily impressed by the slow, loud plane with a huge gun punching holes in the desert whereas the F-16 they never saw that dropped a single JDAM they never saw that actually killed a bunch of enemies they never saw but who were about to open up enfilading fire on them doesn't impress nearly as much.

Our military defense contractors have invented some incredible pieces of equipment throughout our history but the A-10 created its own category of lethality and destructive capability. It’s retirement will be a sad day. Long live the A-10 Warthog 💪🏼🥇🇺🇸

Your mission/scenario based mission videos are my absolute favorite ones. I enjoy them much more than just 1v1 duels. Reminds me of doing Arma ops with friends but with planes lol. Keep it up!

How about you and a buddy do a ground attack team using the A-10 and AV-8? That would be fun.

@chrismaverick9828

in DCS a well coordinated pair of A-10c (II)'s will absolutely tear up the place. You can smoke out the short range sams and schwack 'em, then just go to town on anything and everything that twitches. The HMCS changed everything and made it a truly effective system for designating visual targets on the fly and the SPI sharing capability is fantastic, especially at night. I really wish the -16 and -18 HMD's and systems managed targets as easily.

Those POV from the ground showing the damage, the overfly + the BRRRRRRRRRR sound… what’s delightful video you just did!, congrats and thank you!

The laughter after "I don't wanna do a gun run on civilians" was the most American thing 😂

After putting the A10C2 away for awhile, I’m pushing through the learning curve again. Still one of my favourite aircraft. Just very complicated systems. At least for a Ledite like myself.

@@Bornst3ll3r Actually the A-10 is great against any pre 21st century SHORAD or other low end air defense systems. Like every other aircraft from that era it just can't deal with modern networked air defense. That is likely but has yet to be proven as nobody has tried to take down a truly modern system yet. And no Ukranie doesn't count.

Probably didn't even need to drop flares after that first pass, poor convoy is enough of a heat signature itself 😂

Love the A-10 videos. Growing up they buzzed our house all the time flying around 100 ft off the deck. By far my favorite aircraft

The Battle Creek tag on the A-10 is awesome. I use to fly out of KBTL constantly and I wish those boys still flew out of there. Awesome video.

Can you imagine the incomprehensible primate noises that would come from the cockpit of an A-10 operating alone, fully loaded with ordnance and granted unrestricted permission to engage targets of opportunity upon spotting this many ground targets? Ground pounding Shangri-La.

I feel bad for having left my A-10C in the hangar for some time now after seeing this video. She is really a remarkable performer in those CAS missions. I enjoyed the video. Thanks

"I think I saw a BTR in there." Pilots don't want you to learn this simple trick to avoid court martial!

That fly-by was immaculate 💯

The burps of freedom!

Awesome video, absolutely love all your scenarios and the work you put in!

Maan A10C vids tearing convoys and air defences apart never gets old - Great work keep it comin

My dad was on the receiving end of German rocket artillery during The Bulge on a regular basis. Nebelfwerver-wursts or whatever the krauts called them. GIs called them the "screaming meemies", and they were very similar to that grad stuff. Not a pleasant month for him.

haha that flypast at the end was sick!

Always a great pleasure watching your CAS Missions in the A-10

The ground level flares after a kill, are my favorite!! A small phosphorus fire for your village, and one for yours!! Fires for everyone!!😂😂

Love your A-10C and more generally your air-to-ground content

Always a good day when gs makes an a-10 vid. Love your vids man!

I absolutely do LOVE those A-10 videos!!! Please make more of them!

Absolutely devastating A-10 artistry!! Great Video GS!!

Fun fact: the high explosive shells used in the Iowa-class battleships were 2000 pounds. Really puts things in perspective when Mk 84s are in play. Meanwhile the Mk 82s (500 lb bombs) are the same weight as a 10 inch artillery shell.

@borismekler

8 ай бұрын

Except the Mk 84 carries six times more explosive than a 16-inch HC shell, and more powerful explosive at that. The 16-inch shell is closest in power to Mk 81 bomb, which was quickly retired due to insufficient lethality.

The A-10 is just an apocalypse with wings

Absolutely love these A-10 vids.

I love the F4 stuff the most.. second most is the A10 both are awesome content to me more please :))

Yesss! Thanks for the awesome A-10 CAS.

Damn, you can fly that thing! Good job!

10:06 T90 runnin like "oh fuk oh fuk oh fuk" 😂

I think the little roll during the fly by is a really fun signal because the a10 pops up slightly as it rolls before you zoom off. As if you're saying over and out.

Awesome video. Thank you!

I couldn't help myself but playing the "America - F**k Yeah!" song in my head during the attack run on that convoy. It just fits so well XD

I can imagine if the Flight Chief ever asks why you always come back with no flare, you just gotta say “it’s for the homies”.

More A-10 ground target shredding! Love it!

Why is hearing the brrrrrrttt noise so much fun? I don't think it can be explained, lol. Ah, well. Look fwd to the next brrrrrttt vid.

You shot that last convoy truck so close you were in lethal range with a shotgun.

This was SICK!

Always love the Warthog missions!

love the way the convoy goes off the road

Dcs did a really decent job with the a-10 audio. The explosions sound funky, other than that it sounds great.

I'd love to see both The A-10C and The F-15E in one scenario/Vid!🙏👍

I can't believe they'd try to retire this thing. It's a near-invincible killing machine. That rocket strike on that town was legitimately terrifying, given what we've been hearing about on the news lately. God have mercy.

Clean run

BRRTTTTT always work !! more more more of the A-10 plz

Kinda random, but I saw the Battle Creek paint on the a10, I live next to the afb that the a10 originally came from and there is the engine of one hit by a Sam at a museum nearby.

Don't miss the A-10s new album, with such hit singles as "Warheads on foreheads" and "BRRRRT if you love me true"

I think the F-22 fits that "is there no one else" quote better

Can you try some F/A-18 ground strike? I think that would be pretty cool to watch and hopefully fun to play

I saw this movie over the weekend. "The Final Countdown" from 1980. Had never seen it before, but it had F-14's in it, so I was compelled to watch it. The U.S.S. Nimitz gets time warped back to the Pacific Theater on December 7th, 1941. A couple F-14's got to shoot down some Zero's. Got me thinking that it might be a cool video to simulate the entire Japanese air invasion force against two F-14's 🤣🤣🤣
