Watch This Insane Video: A-10 Warthog in Action

Ғылым және технология

Affectionately called the “Warthog” for its aggressive look and often painted with teeth on the nose cone, the A-10 Thunderbolt II is the U.S. Air Force’s primary low-altitude close air support aircraft. The A-10 is perhaps best known for its fearsome GAU-8 Avenger 30mm gatling gun mounted on the nose. The GAU-8 is designed to fire armor-piercing depleted uranium and high explosive incendiary rounds.
The A-10 Thunderbolt II has excellent maneuverability at low air speeds and altitude, and is a highly accurate and survivable weapons-delivery platform. The aircraft can loiter near battle areas for extended periods of time and operate in low ceiling and visibility conditions.

Anytime they flew over my school during recess all the boys would immediately stop what they were doing and stare up into the sky until it was gone. A buddy of mine was hit in his head by a kickball because he looked up when he heard the A10. My neighbor's son-in-law was an A10 pilot and he'd occasionally fly over to say "hi".

    Thing is, the A-10 Thunderbolt is stupidly cheap (and easy) to maintain. They were designed to be so cost effective so that even a tiny little airfield can land one of these things, repair it, and send it on its way again in a matter of hours. By comparison, the F35 the Air Force wanted to replace the A-10 with are several magnitudes more expensive and to maintain, and they can't even take half of the beating an A-10 can.

The A-10 has a top speed of about 196m/s, the muzzle velocity of the GAU-8 Avenger is about 1010m/s. So at top speed the bullets will be travelling at 1206m/s relative to the ground, which would give each round about 43% more kinetic energy.

The gun was as long as a 1962 Cadillac and the rounds that it launched were just stunningly huge. A VERY impressive piece of genius !! Keep this plane in our inventory. NOTHING can replace it ! The Army, Navy and Marines may give the Air Force some good natured shit, as all branches do to each other, but when you and your brothers are pinned down in some God forsaken area of Afghanistan and here comes a pair of Warthogs, well,......God bless the United States Air Force !!!!!!!

    @Bobby Brady That is absolutely false. It was designed to survive in a very hostile SAM/AAA environment. It's main job was to fly multiple daily sorties over Soviet tactical airspace. In Iraq, it flew in dense AAA areas and excelled...became legendary. So where does your deduction come from? It sounds like an opinion based on guesses, or personal taste...not an data or factual analysis. The fact is...other than stealth, one simply cannot build a more survivable CAS platform...within reason.

    Bobby Brady You are seriously misinformed if that's your "opinion". It has done exactly what you claim it wasn't designed for. It is in fact a highly survivable aircraft in virtually any environment. It's only real Achilles heal, if you can broadly call it that, it that it's not particularly fast. If comparing it to the Russian Frogfoot, which is Mach 1+ capable, that is the Hawg only real vulnerability. This has however, in actual combat, not proven to be the case on a regular basis. What, pray-tell, is your alternative for a cost effective and robust CAS platform? If you say the F35 Lightening... I'll slap your stupid face off your head.

There’s been talk for a while about retiring it, that it’s CAS role is done better by other aircraft like the Bone, F-16, F-22 and others. That may be true, I’ve never served and I only know what I’ve watched and read. But there’s no denying that this platform does it’s job in style, takes a beating and keeps on hitting. I hope that they keep it as long as it’s able to keep our guys safe, instead of putting in the heap just because something newer and cooler needs to get some of the glory. This plane has inspired so many, that imagine swooping in and raining hellfire on the bad guys, so our soldiers can do their job. Love this plane.

    The turning radius on these is incredible. I’ve owned cars that took wider turns. Wow. I’d be lying if I said that the “BRRRRRRTT” sound didn’t make me giggle every time. The A-10 is the military version of The Hulk. It’s can take a ridiculous beating and deal out so much destruction it’s just crazy. I hope they just keep updating it and making it better and better.

    Even though I am true-blue Navy, my heart is full of pride for this USAF jewel. And every time I see a demo, and hear that gatling fart, I want to pump my USA-loving fist in the air with unbridled pride!!!

    An interesting fact that I just found out about the A-10 is that it only tops out at 704 km/h (at least the Warthog) which isn’t even close to mach 1, and it only has a range of 400 km before it goes out of fuel. If you compare that too at JAS39 Griffin, it’s really bad stats. The Griffin tops out at 2150 km/h which is over mach 2 and has a range of 1500-3000 km. Still tho, you can’t really compare these to planes, since the A-10 is a turret with wings, but it’s still interesting
