When I visited Indiana a couple years ago, we went to a restaurant and the Indianan we were with ordered one of these. Not quite that exaggerated size, but holy cow, it was still huge! My mouth fell open. I couldn’t believe it. 😂😂

A-10 “Warthogs” retained by Congress.

The Air Force wanted to delete all 162 A-10s still in service. Congress says keep 103 for another year.

This aging, but very hardy and extremely effective, ground attack air craft has no similar low altitude replacements planned by the AF. Special Forces Operations command is acquiring a few highly maneuverable light weight crop duster like aircraft for that role.

Given the emphasis of Trump’s new National Security Statement on the western hemisphere, why not keep at least several dozen A-10s for the actual shooting war on drugs that is developing.

A-10s will be perfect for low level attacks on drug cartel infrastructure and bases.

“Alexander Matsegora, the Russian ambassador to North Korea who was evaluated to have served as a “close link” between North Korea and Russia, has passed away. North Korean leader Kim Jong-un sent a message of condolence to President Vladimir Putin to express his grief.”
https://www.chosun.com/english/north-korea-en/2025/12/09/2LIZ6NKTLJAHLCC4ENMSH66A7U/#google_vignette

“Kim’s condolence message over Matsegora’s death is highly unusual, as he typically issues such messages only after the deaths of national leaders or major disasters in North Korea’s traditional socialist allies — including China, Russia, Vietnam and Cuba.”
