The engine cuts thrust automatically when the landing gear touch the deck. If you listen in the video you actually hear it at the 57 second mark.

And who "sold" them Tyler? You can't deny the "patriots" involvement

You may want to do some homework on the A-10, regarding crash of prototypes, losses in combat, and friendly fire incidents, along with A-10s being pulled or held back from dangerous environments. Other than that though, yeah its been outstanding.

I leave it up to to figure out which aircraft is on the ascendancy and which is in decline. Lets see who is where in 6 years, shall we?

And not a single AAM was seen that day.^ It does have Aim-9s (to be used defensively) but no Radar, no BVR missiles, no electronic warfare or jamming etc. so yes, its specialized and relies on other aircraft being able to protect it more and more.

Really? Where were you in 1999-2006? The Super Hornet was the F-35 of its day:

If you want more internal ordnance you are looking at a beyond fighter-class airplane.

Might have something to do with the Typhoon getting a head start back in the 1980s?

Remember hearing the same about the Super Hornet, and some people even alleged it about the F-22.

With or without all the fuel tanks on it?

literally LOLed

this

Did they talk about the flights that get canceled because of maint issues, and how they have to unload the cargo onto the god damn spare and end up losing a whole day to get to the damn ship just to try again tomorrow?

  • On 29 April 1965, YC-2A #148147 was on a test flight when it was ditched into Long Island Sound where the four crewmen died of exposure.[10]

LOL. great logic.

White truck. singular. they repainted ONE:

1. its not the color of the truck. its the temp of the fuel. it can use fuel from a black truck provided the temp has not climbed beyond threshold.

If its about technical facts Tyler would have been well advised to include the fact that all aircraft have temperature thresholds. The F-22 had similiar issues until those bugs could be ironed out along with the B-1, which still has to cycle systems to avoid overheat.
