GAU-8 Avenger Gatling type cannon shoots 30mm anti-tank rounds or high explosive incendiary rounds that can ruin anyone's day. I'd sure hate to have one these chasing me. I wouldn't run...why die tired!

I think the ground pounders, army & marines, should have a say in whether the A-10 is shelved or not. It's their a$$ on the line. Of course the higher-ups would'nt want to give up their power/decision making.

It would be a travesty and a slap in the face to thousands not to put Huey at the top of the discussion.

You should see the helos that fly round these parts. And with Sikorsky and Boeing in cahoots now, the Osprey is a regular fly over. The s-97 looks to be a bad assed piece of machinery.
However I don't think 11-bravos will ever want anything than the tank killer loitering over head.

The Huey's are parked next to the M151 Jeep's.

The HUMMWV has hit the limits of capabilities with all the weight of the armor and the hull design and other vulnerabilities (that I will not discuss) remained a huge concern going forward so the next replacement is going to be the JLTV (Joint Light Tactical Vehicle) that we are currently testing. There are numerous variants...
