  @Knapsack The A-10 is a flying tank! I can see why they say "Go ugly early" respect a plane built around a gun!

  As an EWD, the A10 was always the most effective CAS asset we controlled. Love the A-10

  .General what is your opinion of the plan to take A-10 out of service but not replace it with a specific airframe?
