It's really cool that he's been posting this stuff, it's actually completely new to me. I've been loving it for the last couple of months, gets me through work.
I spent my career in the Army as an 11H using themTOW system, hunting tanks is an art that one develops little by little. It requires us to never assume anything and to move after firing a missile or two then firing from alternate positions. By doing this we reduce the chance of being spotted by the enemy where they can call in artillery or air support to deal with us.

We need to take care of ourselves first before we start giving away billions. How about hardening our schools or taking care of our vets instead of giving Ukraine our Apache’s? Europe can certainly chip in and give the Ukraine whatever they need
@@ndx6779 Just think of the good those tax $$$ could have done. US is possibly the most unequal society on Earth. The middle class has all but disappeared since1980.

You need to cover all aspects, for example in 1940 the French had more powerful, better armed tanks than the Germans but they did not use them correctly.
The "warthog" is worthless. During desert storm, they were being shot down or damaged to a degree that they were moved AWAY from the fighting. Not to mention that their 'antitank lethality' is a myth. Not even in ideal range conditions did they fare well...trash.
I don't believe the A10 has never taken out (with its gun) any tank newer than an T34. They took out lots of softer targets. For an A10 to take out a main battle tank they need to use a Hellfire or better yet a Maverick. The Maverick has a significantly larger warhead and range.
Small propeller aircraft like the super tucano can fill the same role (loiter time, CAS, "tank busting") in an uncontested airspacefor considerably less cost, but perhaps at the expense of survivability and sheer payload
Tanks-A- Lot for uploading this program.
👏well done sir👏 well done👏😂
Thank you for uploading these mate I so enjoyed watching this back in the day,thank you

Oh yeah!
My favorite A-10 Attack aircraft !
This one is one of the best!
Made my day! Thank you, Mike! 👍👌💪🔥♥️
I’m pretty sure I’d be “…tickled pink to get the damn thing back, park it, and get out…” too. Enlightening video. Thank you for sharing it.
Another great post!
Thanks for sharing Mike!
I remember watching this in middle school, then joining the army and going to Baghdad in a Mech infantry unit with Bradley’s. 1st ID Baghdad 06-07.

This was before fire and forget was made with NLAWS and Javelins.
It's just like in sports, you are only as successful as your opponent allows you to be….
Hey everybody you should know that the M-1 tank had the exact fire control system of an M60-A3.
Ahhh, when A&E was known as the war channel
Hellfire seems like an app name for it it certainly look like hell
Why the Bradley's Main gun is 25mm and the Apache's front machinegun is 30mm, any reason to not provide Bradleys with 30mm Main gun?
It's not all size, it's also velocity.
The 30mm of the Apache is NOT the one that the A-10 uses.
we need to supply Ukraine with apache helicopters

@NDX an apache taking out a school shooter would be slight over kill.
Nowt quite like a bit of the ole Charlie G.

Not effective on T55 and newer at a head-on shot.
Must be on side or back on a T55.
Might only be effective against tracks on newest MBTs.
