The A-10 Thunderbolt II, affectionately known as the “Warthog,” is a rugged, close air support aircraft designed to protect ground forces by taking out enemy armor and vehicles. Built around its powerful GAU-8/A Avenger 30mm cannon, the A-10 can deliver massive firepower with pinpoint accuracy while flying low and slow over the battlefield. Its tough airframe, redundant systems, and titanium armor allow it to survive heavy damage and keep flying. With unmatched loiter time, maneuverability at low speeds, and a wide array of weapons, the A-10 has earned a legendary reputation for saving lives on the front lines.
