This machine gun's sound is just ... frightening. Just imagine a band of F-10 jumping in and there is just a silence in a battlefield and only brrrrrrrrrrrrtttt here and there. Just like some kind of a dragons would having their own feast. Fascinating and frightening at the same time.
Yeh you got it right there mate the sound of the cannon is beautiful and a lot of the terrorists died to hear that sound but they died before they could hear it haha gotta love when the bad guys order some freedom dropped on their ass
I was at England AFB 23 TFW Flying Tigers. Love that Plane and never had to see it fight. works nights and went to range about 20 miles from base in the morning and watched them Shoot. Incredible to see and here.
I've seen the A-10 nose to nose and in flight. It carries a high-speed 6-barrel 30 mm (1.18 inch) cannon--- it makes that loud double-zipper sound --- that can rip a tank to shreds. It can loiter a few hundred feet above the ground and turn on a dime, a truly remarkable sight for a jet-powered aircraft. This is one bad-ass machine, a perfect solution to a difficult problem. The Soviets called it "the Devil's Cross". I couldn't believe that anyone thought to retire this beautifully ugly airplane -- and fortunately smarter heads prevailed.
I don't know if I buy too much of that. We will be flying B52s until they are close to a century old. I know that construction, design, and flight stresses differ. They have come to the realization that the F35 can't take its place. The maintenance is just to intensive. They keep trying to come up with ideas for replacement, but nothing exists that has the capability when it comes to flight, weapons, or durability. Every time someone from the top tries to kill it, it's someone lower down that shows how much of a mistake it would be. It is a single mission aircraft and if its mission still exists, it should too. It's so simple and cheap, it would cost less to manufacture more, even if it requires remaking all of the tooling required.
Popular Mechanics claimed that in 2007, the Apaches claimed 70% of the enemy kills when there were when there were 170,000 U.s. troopers and less than 200 Apaches. The vast majority of CAS call-ins resulted in the allied aircraft not firing a shot. The U.S. Air Force was never into air to ground and only has done so to stay relevant.
David Kelly The F-15 sales pitch was "Not a pound for air to ground." From 1930 to the Vietnam Civil War, the U.S. army air and then the U.S. Air Force was far more interested in bombers and escort aircraft than aircraft for CAS missions. That's why one could name the best army/air force fighter bombers on one hand. The air generals wanted bombers and escorts.
I remodeled a house on the Wawasee lake in Indiana. I would stay there during the week at the house while It was gutted to studs and floors ripped up. During my eight month stay, these would fly low over the lake and right over the lake house. It was an amazing thing to see.
Dayson Boon it would, no doubt about it, but we don't really need them, the f18 and the cf18 are multirole jets, that's what we need, our armed forces don't really have the budget or the need for them as Canada isn't in any need of ground attack role jets
The Warthog is a tank with wings it's design is 30MM cannon with an aircraft built around it and have been in service since the 70's they had decided to take them out of service but it caused such an up roar the DOA decided to leave them alone this is old fly by wire technology that's why they wanted to scrap them .
David Kelly The U.S. air Force is going to end up with drones, a few bombers and some fighters that can drop laser guided bombs if the guys on the ground can aim their guiding lasers. The vast majority of CAS missions with jets in Iraq and Afghanistan plus the sorties in Syria have resulted in mostly flying around and not shooting. That's because either the enemy left before the jets got their or the jets couldn't identify the target. Drones are already crashing at a high rate and will crash even more once they are being jammed.
So Yes - the AC 130 Specter Gunship can replace almost anything this platform can do - but we don't have enough of those platforms at the moment for sure. And Yes, the Air Force wants to shift CAS expenditures to the Army with their budget and make the Apache the responsible gunship - which it can do by the way. But the way the American military is stretched thin at this moment in time with multiple combat theaters and with the increased need, ending the A-10 project is simply dangerous to our current ground missions. And Yes, it was simply irresponsible for the Air Force to appear before the Congress and state that the F-35 could replace any of these platforms. That aircraft is simply unproven and should not be touted as a replacement for anything at the moment.
Absolutely dumb the F35 is badass but only in stealth mode the A10 says fuck stealth and fly's straight into hell of fire takes a few good hits and still comes out the other end of hell lol what hits can the f35 take and still fly's straight through hell and come out the other end of hell would it be down or still in stealth mode lol
nah its not man every aircraft has their own helmet specs thats just the one for the a-10's avionics, just like the latest f-16 helmet vs the older one they upgrade them to fit the avionics package in the jet and some of the hawgs still use the old rounder looking helmets
Poetry in motion. A GAU gun with wings attached. ❣️
So much badassery. JTACs on the ground and A10 pilots in the air. We really do have an elite military.
I could watch hours of footage on this bird!

Is this one your favourite aeromaplane?
Man,what a beauty of plane,just by listening of its sound when passes by,makes me smiling!!
Amazing!!
This machine gun's sound is just ... frightening. Just imagine a band of F-10 jumping in and there is just a silence in a battlefield and only brrrrrrrrrrrrtttt here and there. Just like some kind of a dragons would having their own feast. Fascinating and frightening at the same time.
I am really happy these guys and gals are on OUR side!
Without a doubt one of the coolest looking military jets of all time. And the sound of that canon? To die for!
Yeh you got it right there mate the sound of the cannon is beautiful and a lot of the terrorists died to hear that sound but they died before they could hear it haha gotta love when the bad guys order some freedom dropped on their ass
Merry BRRRRRRRRRRRRPmas.
The whine of the jets is the second best part
First best is BRRRRRRRRRT
Great video!
let's make a killer gun, a Gatling gun. Then we'll make it fly. Yeah, a flying super gun that's hard to blow up. Yeah.
Doin' work like a damn Boss!! ..... but what the hell else would you expect when elite American pilots and the 30mm GAU-8 come together?!!? 💪
I was at England AFB 23 TFW Flying Tigers. Love that Plane and never had to see it fight. works nights and went to range about 20 miles from base in the morning and watched them Shoot. Incredible to see and here.
Woo I love the A-10
I like to call that iconic whistle noise the "reapers whistle" when it flies by
I love that burrrrrrrpp
great vid!
The whistle of a Fairchild going by is awesome. My favourite aircraft.
I've seen the A-10 nose to nose and in flight. It carries a high-speed 6-barrel 30 mm (1.18 inch) cannon--- it makes that loud double-zipper sound --- that can rip a tank to shreds.

One of the best
why would they ever want to replace this thing? When it comes to its mission, it is perfect.
I don't know if I buy too much of that. We will be flying B52s until they are close to a century old. I know that construction, design, and flight stresses differ. They have come to the realization that the F35 can't take its place. The maintenance is just to intensive.

A-10s are like the dragons in a knight/wizards/medeval/lords of the rings-like battlefield... Hope you get the idea...

The best way to look into an enemy's eyes before you snuff them out is from the cockpit of a Warthog 😎👌
Merry Christmas Gung Ho !!
Thank you, and I hope you had a good Christmas also!
Gung Ho Vids
what are your opinions on the f35?
Oh boy😍
It can take a pounding ,But dishes it out as we'll...🇺🇸☠
amazing suppression support
That is soo soo cool wow
The one thing I like about the Warthog, it's not cute and that snout will root out...
my favourite. to bad Canada doesn't have these.
Dayson Boon we don't need em
Adeel Siddiqui It'd be nice to have them instead of our CF-18s soon replaced with F-18s
Dayson Boon it would, no doubt about it, but we don't really need them, the f18 and the cf18 are multirole jets, that's what we need, our armed forces don't really have the budget or the need for them as Canada isn't in any need of ground attack role jets
I live in Tucson AZ I’ve had the a10 flying over my head my whole life I got to sit in one in the 5th grade and the bullet was as long as my arm
Brrrrt!
I want to be a Fighter pilot sooo bad 😩😩
the BRRRT sound is so scary
I wish we have a-10's in the Netherlands 😢
Echt zo
I hope that thay fly over Dallas Georgia
Gotta love the fart of death
I just love the sound. The sound of America taking a shit all over the enemy.
King of the brrrrrrrt

I was busy teaching all the way across DU then had too race too Denver .... sorry I'm soooo late but at least Ive learned While teaching still? no ...
A cannon with a plane wrapped around it.
Most Efficient CAS ever
thinking the f35 could replace this is just dumb.
The Apache E is going to replace it. The Air Force only talks CAS to stay relevant.
David Kelly
The U.S. air Force is going to end up with drones, a few bombers and some fighters that can drop laser guided bombs if the guys on the ground can aim their guiding lasers. The vast majority of CAS missions with jets in Iraq and Afghanistan plus the sorties in Syria have resulted in mostly flying around and not shooting. That's because either the enemy left before the jets got their or the jets couldn't identify the target. Drones are already crashing at a high rate and will crash even more once they are being jammed.
Wars are all going to be fought on the internet soon, all they need is a wifi connection and away they go
So Yes - the AC 130 Specter Gunship can replace almost anything this platform can do - but we don't have enough of those platforms at the moment for sure.

Dont ever take away these from service.
The A-10 is why all enemy tanks should all be equipped with a GTFO light. See that thing coming? Get the fuck outta the tank.
Is that a new standard helmet in the air force?
Tome4kkkk ive only seen it on A10 pilots. it may be something to do with the technology behind the A10 only. but dont rely on me too much
nah its not man every aircraft has their own helmet specs thats just the one for the a-10's avionics, just like the latest f-16 helmet vs the older one they upgrade them to fit the avionics package in the jet and some of the hawgs still use the old rounder looking helmets
Not sure how’s the real bad a$$ .. the warthogs or the CCTs and TACPs on the ground
BUFF THE B 11 STRIKE FORCE ON GTA 5
they made a gun and then put an airplane around it neat idea
Does anyone besides me just get excited about what the hog would do in the Ukraine right about now?
More like the farting warthog lol
👍🇺🇸👍
i love the A10 but gahhh I hate how it sounds like farts lol
It sounds very different when you hear it on a gun run live. It doesn't sound like a fart at all. It roars and scares the crap out of you!
Farting Death strikes again!
brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
the fart of death
Weather forcast. Sunny with a chance of burururururururururururururut
