The A-10 Warthog (Thunderbolt II) Die Cast and Plastic Model airplane kits.

Description of collectable airplane kits. The A-10 Warthog, as it is mostly known, is really the A-10 Thunderbolt II but because of its looks, they called it the Warthog. It is used for close ground support and anti tank missions. The A-10 Warthog carries a 30 mm Gatling cannon in its nose and can penetrate any kind of armor. The A-10 is also heavily covered with portions of Armor Plate to protect vital components of the aircraft and protect the pilot. During the Gulf War, when Iraqi tank commanders saw the A-10 Warthog in the area, the commanders gave the order to abandon the tank and not to try to out maneuver or fight against the Warthog. This is because these tanks knew that they didn't have single chance of getting away without being destroyed. One common story about the A-10's is that it is capable of jettisoning an engine so that heat seeking missiles would follow the engine and not the plane. This is totally wrong and I have absolutely no idea where this fictitious statement came from. The warthog uses flares to do this job. There are many ways to search the web for the A-10 here are some search phrases that can help, model airplanes, a10, a-10, warthog, thunderbolt II, thunderbolt, ground attack .These collectable models come in plastic model airplane kits, wood model airplane kits, diecast and mahogany airplane models. The A-10 is not really a fighter jet, it is actually a close ground support and anti-tank aircraft. The A in A-10 stands for Attack. Real fighter jets have their numbers starting with F. The F/A-18 is a multi-role aircraft being a fighter jet, and also capable of operating in the Attack Mode.
These Specs are only for one version of this A-10 Warthog, close ground support aircraft, other versions have different specs.

	Attack Aircraft Weapons at War VHS Video. Where other pilots try to survive by staying away from enemy guns, the men who fly ground support spend much of their time buzzing just above the infantry and tanks they attack. One tiny mistake can slam them into the ground in a split second. One well-placed shot means instant death. In World War I, daring pilots leaned over the sides of rickety biplanes to drop grenades on troops below. Today, awesome planes such as the A-10 "Warthog" streak low across the battlefield, ripping through infantry and blasting enemy tanks open with their devastating cannon and missiles. They are a vital part of nearly all land-based operations, providing essential support to troops on the ground. Attack Aircraft chronicles the development, technology and strategy of these "flying tanks." Combat footage shows them in action from World War II to Desert Storm, and in gripping interviews pilots detail the tactics that they employ to stay alive while firing on targets sometimes only a hundred feet away. It's a riveting look at a dangerous and difficult mission, and at the extraordinary planes that perform it. 50 min. #00V8463 Price: $24.95
