Defending one of our most effective weapons systems is “treason”.

Got it.

I wonder if he is getting a paycheck from another entity (or two) in addition to the Air Force.

Any statistics on how often flag officers are reprimanded, replaced, cashiered... year to year?

The internet may bring to more cases light,and the rate remains similar?

No hard numbers , but the appearance is an increase with dear leader (from the behind).

Questioning the policy of eliminating an effective weapon system = treason.

Declaring oneself a Soldier of Allah and killing thirteen fellow soldiers = workplace violence.

OK, got it.

Give the A-10 to the Marine Corps!

It is not like the Marine Corps isn’t used to hand-me-downs, and since the A-10 is as subtile as a punch in the chops, it would be right at home.

Grunts, snipers, and A-10 drivers....... salt o the earth!

The moron general is a fighter pilot and AF fighter pilots don’t consider the A-10 to be a fighter. It’s too slow and runs too close to the live fire for them so they want to get rid of it so as to promote what they consider to be “real” fighters.

This battle has been ongoing for years. The fighter jocks have long wanted to be rid of the Hog.

He deserves to be cashiered. Treason my ass.

The Warthog is an awesome close air support aircraft. The Best!

Hopefully, this general will be demoted and transferred to Siberia.

There is absolutely nothing that tyrannical politicians and bureaucrats hate more than the truth.

Just give it to the Army, and or perhaps the Marines.

Given who is in power, kind of surprised he wasn’t promoted. [/s]

No worries, the F35 can do this mission...right? Maybe they will rely on drones?

He’s the treasonous pos...

...is we had the A-10 in RVN we’d all be living in a different world now.

It is the most magnificent CAS for the fighting man on the ground since the Ark of the Covenant.

Money and Inter-Service Politics.

I flew F-4’s in the Marines during the late 70’s. The Air Force was deploying the F-15 and most of the F-4 community were jealous.

We could see that the F-15 would be a perfect fit for the Marines. Low wing-loading, great maneuverability and high weapons load capability.

First, the powers-that-be informed us that it would be impossible to “carrierize” the F-15, because the required internal structure would be too heavy.

When we didn’t buy that; we were simply ordered by people with stars on their collar to “never mention the F-15 in relation to the USMC”, to anyone, especially the media and/or politicians.

I see the current brouhaha as similarly-based.
