A-10 Thunderbolt II, warthrog

A tribute to A-10 Thunderbolt
The A-10 is literally built around its 30-mm GE GAU-8 Avenger seven barrel cannon, the most powerful gun ever fitted to an aircraft of this class. It was designed for high-survivability with a titanium cover surrounding both the cockpit, ammunition and fuel tank.
The A-10 Thunderbolt II is a single-seat, twin-engine jet aircraft designed to provide close air support (CAS) of ground forces by attacking tanks, armored vehicles, and other ground targets.
As a secondary mission, it provides airborne forward air control, guiding other attack aircraft against ground targets.
It is the first US Air Force aircraft designed exclusively for close air support (CAS) of ground forces.
The official nickname comes from the P-47 Thunderbolt of World War II, a plane that was particularly effective at the CAS mission.
However, the A-10 is more commonly known as Warthog.
