Description

The A-10 Thunderbolt II, also known as the "Warthog," is a highly specialized ground-attack aircraft renowned for its ruggedness and lethality in close air support missions. Developed by Fairchild Republic, it features a nose-mounted GAU-8/A Avenger 30 mm Gatling gun and can carry various ordnance. Its ability to operate at low altitudes and relatively slow speeds makes it invaluable for providing close air support to ground troops.
