You can say that...But really, no, you don’t.

Do you think they really brought it down...?

You don’t really have data to support that either way.

You’ve succeeded where the F-35 program has obviously failed.

Exactly! The F-4 pilots had NO dogfight training/experience.

Have some remarks about that, hope ya don’t mind my $0.02:

That doesn’t mean the aircraft is a disaster though.

Ok, according to Wiki (source is USAF fact sheet), the A-10 (unknown variant) costs $18.8 million - That’s flyaway cost - We aren’t buying more, though.

LOL no.

No.

Its apples to oranges.

I think they’ll keep the Eagles going for a while, until we get 5.5/6th gen fighters.

It isn’t much a fighter, though... :)

The F-35 is a strike fighter - Just like newer F-16s, Rhinos, Strikes, and everything else. Rhinos are strike fighters and O-ECM platforms too.

Facepalm

Clean with ~20% fuel, yeah, it’ll get off the deck....

Build new A-10s.

If that’s true, then no other fighter can do the CAS role “adequately”

Is that a Litening pod I see?
