It can’t have all the armor protection of an A10 and it certainly doesn’t have the super cannon. You can’t pack too much of a punch.

True enough, but do you need a tank-busting cannon to take on a dozen militants holed up in a cave with a mortar or two?

.....and, yes, I know the flip answer is "Sure! Why not?" ..... but really? Would it be better to have less firepower more readily available, or more firepower that's less readily available?

I dunno - that's why I'm asking. There's got to be a FAC on FR, somewhere.
