Holy Crap, real nice fine!


By the way, looks like it's from the First Gulf War.

It is a good find, although it's a video that was repeatedly used in almost every Gulf War I documentary to date.

Mostly displayed as a "Survivability factor" of the A-10 Thunderbolt (Warthog).

I wonder if that guy had to check his six for chocolate after that encounter... :oops:

I'm surprised he didn't jettison his ordinance

It is from the first gulf war. I remember when it happened. The pilot was very humble.

The A-10 is the best CAS aircraft in the U.S. arsenal.

And the Air Force wants to deep six this thing...They are nuts!

Mmm I think that F16 is better than A10 in a modern Cas mission 'cos A10's are very slow and so are a easy target for strelas and gunfire...

Just my opinion
