    Started my career back in 86 working the BUFF, and now, almost 23 years later, I am still working it. I've also worked 16's as well. But my heart is with the BUFF.

    I think I posted this after I made it, but if not:

    I made this after going out on the USS Nimitz (CVN-68) for a day with my Civil Air Patrol squadron back in March.

    Around. Very, very busy. I've got a two week break from school now, so I'm possibly going to be back here more.

    The A-10 Warthog is by far one of the more bad-ass rigs I have ever seen. 30mm cannons on the nose, can carry tons, and I mean tons, of bombs, and is always there when you need them. :D

    Must have missed this thread, but yeah, it looks like an LMTV or an M1078 which ever you prefer, but it is the smaller version, it has a bigger brother the MTV or M1083 with 2 rear axles. Only use i have seen them for though is hauling around SATCOM equipment.

    yea but the only problem with them is they burn more fuel then your Daddy's F-250... Back when the A-10s were at Pope we sent 6 of them up to an Air Show on the Pacific Coast.. We had to load 2 KC-10 Air Refuelers with Cargo and Supplies that hadto fly with the A-10s so the A-10s could be refueld twice along the trip or they would have had to stop and land at 4 different bases along the way..

    Saab's Gripen... Crazy jet, But the Chinese J-10 is probably the best dog fighter or the Eurofighter typhoon.

    Hell yeah! I hate the F-22 but it'll fly circles around anything else in the sky. Hell, the old F-15 will still kick their ass.

    SU-30 = Air superiority, one of the best all round planes bombing...and dogfighting. And the J-10 schooled the F-35's, F15's and the canadian f16's in the sky... They couldn't keep up with it and follow it. And before they knew it in split second the J-10 pilot would be behind them. I believe it was in the international red flag training exercise. The J-10 was more agile, could climb and turn faster. Also the J-10 was designed mostly by russia. You can prolly download, or watch some of the red flag stuff on youtube. There's an IMAX documentary on Red Flag 2006 u can torrent or whatever.
