I guess the specter of ISIS toppling your monarchy or military dictatorship in the name of Allah is good motivation.</p>

Venerable A-10 Warthog being sent to Middle East (again).</p>

They just can't permanently retire those bad boys (I spent a large part of my Air Force Career supporting those). </p>

I don't know why they would want to retire them. They are amazing machines. Perfection imo when it comes to close combat and support.</p>

My boss is a former airforce pilot. He said they were great but the rounds would jam frequently and overheat. They would be dangerous when they landed after that happened and they had to actually destroy the whole cannon.

The capable replacement is probably too expensive. Just amazing how long these have been in service. Back in my infantry days those ******* would nail us hard before we even saw them, or when we did, they were just so freaking nimble we could not run and hide.

Maybe that is why the big O uses ISIL. That or they are just a bunch of nasty ISILs.

I sure wouldn't want to be behind the wheel or in the bed of a "Technical" when an A-10 popped up over the horizon.</p>
