About the Actual Aircraft
- The A-10 Thunderbolt II is a dedicated close air support and ground attack aircraft used by the American military since 1977.
- Notably equipped with twin engines and straight wings, it has 11 hardpoints under the wings and fuselage, enabling it to carry approximately 7,260 kg of bombs, rockets, and missiles.
- The aircraft also features a GAU-8/A Avenger autocannon in the nose, enhancing its formidable attack capabilities.
- Continuous improvements have been carried out post-deployment, leading to the introduction of the A-10C version in 2005, upgrading the A model to include a glass cockpit.
- The 354th Fighter Squadron, based at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base in Arizona, has been operating the A-10 since 1979. Known as the Bulldogs, the squad is recognized for its roles in close air support, air interdiction, forward air control, combat search, and rescue missions.
