      @GamernautX He got a point tho, A-10 is weak against S-300/S-400 especially when you know this aircraft has no SEAD/DEAD capacity.

    Honestly, this looks like a ton of fun, the closest I'll ever get to doing this is flying in DCS, but the amount of studying and training that lead up to being able to do that is insane. Requires a very high level of dedication and persistence to fly one of these, wish I could honestly.

    Idk if true but crazy that if it had enough ammo to fire the gun long enough then the recoil would stop the jet. Like I said idk if true but that's alot of recoil to make more than thrust.

    • @michaelb1761

      The recoil from the 30 mm cannon is a little more than the thrust from one of the A-10's two engines. Crazy to think about.
