I wonder way the replacemnt wings are necessary. Due to corrosion or fatigue, or for advancing the A-10? Maybe both?

How about some AAA-Fire.
Sustained major wing damage, but was brought back by pilot Capt. Paul Johnson. Major depot level repairs in the field including center wing replacement!

After 30 or so years in service it’s probably stress cracks & pitting. You either re-wing them or you G-limit them.
