Dric902 Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 The A-10 is getting laser guidance for the Hydra 70 rockets. maybe the old girl isn’t quite obsolete yet http://www.foxnews.com/tech/2018/07/12/air-force-f-16s-10s-need-more-laser-guided-rockets-to-attack-small-targets.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crockett Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 Every time that damn warthog shows up on a gun forum, I read AR-10. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duc748s Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 (edited) I don't think the old girl will ever get obsolete. It's a flying tank/gun with a unique support role that for some reason the AF wants to get rid of (well the Brass does, those that fly and maintain it and the ground troops still want it) It's a bad ass plane for sure Edited July 12, 2018 by Duc748s 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janice6 Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 I'm sure the grunts appreciate a platform that can stick around for a while and kick some ass. Slow lets you see things that may not be apparent to the fast ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
