Death from the sky bump. Wasn’t there a move before to decommission the Warthog?
Re: decommission the warthog?
Yes, I had a friend in San Antonio who worked for one of the subcontractors on the warthog back in the 80s. They were shutting down production and the plan was to mothball the A10s or scrap them.
They’d never been tested in combat until the First Gulf War with the Highway of death proved their worth.
