This large twin-engine aircraft was built for the US Air Force as a direct support aircraft for troops and for a tank destroyer role.Heavily armored in all vital areas and equipped with a heavy drop and drop armament, the A-10 is nevertheless a very maneuverable aircraft at low altitudes and this quality is essential to survive the enemy anti-aircraft reaction.The Thunderbolt is practically built around the formidable 30mm GAU-8 cannon which is capable of piercing a tank’s armor plating thanks to its exceptional ballistic qualities and special ammunition.Around the mid-2000s, the A-10, in its “C” version, was improved to better adapt to the changed operational needs.
