[QUOTE="Machster03, post: 13960201, member: 160238"] Fighters can work those roles but not as efficiently. Granted the A-10 is a beast, it's never going to dog fight but it wasn't built for that and let's be honest, the days of that are gone. You would be amazed at how much the plane can take. It's way more maintenance friendly meaning a decent crew chief can fix a problem on it comparable to a fighter in less time. Because of the fuel efficiency of the engines it can stay in the air longer meaning more overhead vigilance for boots on the ground. Also, because of it's slower speed, greater loiter time. Factor in the large pay loads they can carry plus the 30mm gun.....lots of boom for a longer time. If I were that guy on the ground, you could keep your expensive transformer [/QUOTE]
