Why No One Wants to Fight the A-10 Warthog
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 мар 2020
- The A-10 Thunderbolt II is a single-seat, twin turbofan engine, straight wing jet aircraft developed by Fairchild-Republic for the United States Air Force (USAF). The A-10 was designed for close air support (CAS) of friendly ground troops, attacking armored vehicles and tanks, and providing quick-action support against enemy ground forces.

Modern Aircraft designers: How stealthy can we make the plane?
A10 designers: We don't need stealth if everything else is dead
Stealth was an option?
It’s like my concept of stealth, no one can alert each other if they all died.
The noise (BRRRRRT) and shape of the A-10 frighten the sh!t out of the enemy.
No one can notice if there’s no one to notice.

My stepdad served in munitions with the 81st and 354th. All my friends had at least one 30mm round on the fireplace at home. I love the look and the sound of the A-10. Watching these videos just takes that American pride and bumps it up an extra notch.
Back in October 1978 I was sent to Davis-Monthan AFB from Sheppard with orders saying I would be working on the F-4. They really did not talk about the A-10 in Tech School at that time and Sheppard did not have one. So it was a nice surprise when I arrived at the 358th TFTS and found out what I was working on, great plane. I am always amazed on how much the cockpit has changed since then, I really don't recognize it anymore, but glad it is still flying and doing well.

The A-10 is like a flying light tank with a GIANT rotary cannon for a main gun.
The recoil from the cannon is so fierce they have to fire it in short one or two second bursts. If they were to fire it in a longer continuous mode the built up force from the kickback is so powerful it could overcome the thrust from the jet's engines slowing the plane's forward motion enough to cause it to stall depending on what’s happening with the aircraft when they fire the cannon. Stall speed is 120 knots (138 mph, or 222 km/h) at 30,000 lbs (13,600 kg).
Dude!!! I did not know that!!! Damn!!! The gun is THAT POWERFUL??? WOW!!!

When an A10 leaves the base... its coming back
Yep
@Antinio Careres Laughing so hard at this😂😂😂
It is relatively slow flying jet that is indeed very rigidly build capable of sustaining massive demage and still fly however...
I it would likely have no chance of operating in area of adversary armed with advanced air-defence systems such as S300 or Tor-M2 (lets say IRAN and DPRK airspace). Even older systems like S-125 Neva would likely be sufficient enough to shoot it down no problem...
So yeah it is good in shooting of poorly armed taliban fighters that have no way of returning fire... However it can fly low and is very capable battle-proven jet..
@@Zoran675your opinion is wrong
@@jebalitabb8228 You seriously think A10 would be able to operate in area covered by S300 system? ... Maybe if it fly very low close to ground ,but that means it might be targeted by ordinary anti-aircraft guns, Manpads and other short range anti-aircraft systems...
You need to explain why my opinion is wrong ; not just saying it?
I was fortunate enough to have witnessed a live fire by an A-10 when I was in the Air Force. I could feel the concussion deep in my chest when the A-10 fired it’s 30mm rounds. Not only to hear the rounds being fired but to feel them as well was a testimony to the awesome firepower the A-10 possesses and it burned an indelible memory in me that I will never forget. 🇺🇸
Never mind that incendiary, cluster bomb and mine-type weapons violate the genoeva convention. Its a flying war rime.
I live in the town where they train new A-10 Pilots on the weapon system. We hear that glorious sound echo through our little city all the time. I love it.
In the next county over, I was on road patrol, and that also happened to be where the firing range is for this beautiful machine. Sometimes, the base commander would let us come out and watch them shoot up shipping containers. Such an amazing display.
@@Pub2k4 Very cool!!!
I saw one a long time ago. What caught me off-guard was that you would never hear it coming until it was almost on top of you.
There is nothing quite like it for sure 🦅🌎⚓️
I had the privilege of being a live “target” doing swarm maneuvers (local boats in a several chevrons of five boats). This took place in the Choctawhatchee Bay (Destin Florida). They were testing the effectiveness of different aircraft on a “swarm” of high speed boats attacking a vessel. The F-15’s would “kill” you sight unseen. The A-10’s were fun to play with, you could see them line up, laser guns blazing. If you turned sharply at the right moment, you could evade being “killed”.
My grandfather and father served so many years at Eglin Air Force Base, and let me tell you, it's an AWESOME place, God bless the USA flying high!

There is a (I think true) story of a B-17 That had its entire tail ripped off and most of its wings and was still able to glide down to safety, well, safety for the one single crew member. (one of the pilots) however, the rest of the crew died while the plane got basically targeted by the whole enemy force.

@kupis1408 If you consider the fourth largest army in the world (circa 1990-91)... deploying Russian hardware as "insurgents..." then ya, okay. That proved the plane could carry out the mission it was designed for... killing tanks, APCs, vehicles, artillery pits, personnel... hell, an A-10 sawed in half an airborne MIL MI-24 Hind. --- Is an A-10 slow... yes. Is it vulnerable without air superiority... yes. Was it designed to fight without a CAP umbrella... no.
Back to insurgents... there will always be insurgents to deal with. Though it was not designed for this... killing insurgents and keeping their heads down... the A-10 excels at this. And no other plane strikes fear in the enemy like the Thunderbolt II. And it does it at a fraction of the cost of a JSF, Super Hornet or F22.

it's a warthog btw
My unit did a call for fire exercise with an A-10 in Yuma, when the A-10 started the gun run it literally almost stopped in the air when it was firing the cannon. To this day it's still my favorite airplane - although the OV-10 Bronco is a close second.
Let's be honest here... the A10's "BRRRT" makes it a bloody terror weapon
And that's war crime #6! Psychological warfare! Added among radioactive ordinance, mines, incendiary weaponry and clustered ordinance.
The brrrrt is pretty satisfying tbh
I worked as an engine specialist on the A10 in my younger days. Every time the gun was used we'd have to do engine washes to remove gun powder from the inlet & compressor. Because the nose is so long the pilots couldn't see the target in level flight. They would come in inverted to get visual, then right the plane & take the shot. This starved the engine bearing of oil if they stayed inverted to long. They went back & installed an external pump to correct that.
Are you aware that the A-10 violates the genoeva Convention and other war crimes at least five times? (It has come to my attention that I am, in fact, an idiot)
Like usa would care, usa is the war criminal

When designing the A10, chief engineer asked "what is the biggest gatling gun that exists?" "The GE GAU-8 Avenger 30mm, Sir" *shotguns a beer* "Hm yes, that will do. Put the pilot on top of the gun, put the gun in a titanium bathtub with the barrel sticking out the drain, and give it wings that when shot off, the plane still flies."

As I was driving south of Gila Bend on Az85 one day I heard the distinctive rrrrpp and looked to my right to see an A10 practicing on some targets at the Barry Goldwater AF Range. Always a pleasure to drive that narrow road. Our family store is located in Why, Az. and we are always treated to several sonic booms from some of the other military aircraft flying high overhead.

@@HolyCrusader5 Yes the AC-130 is the best gunship. But EVERY vehichle has its own weakness including the ones i said so there is no best because every vehichle has a weakness that another vehichle covers. Even if a country as good as the US has the best millitary it doesnt always mean that our vehichles are the best at everything and are invincible. I want to say this because i want people to know there is also alot of other very cool vehichles in other countries like the Leopard family of tanks and the PUMA IFV from Germany the upcoming Polish STEALTH TANK the PL-01(A VERY COOL tank) the British Black Night has a very cool defense system and others.
