Story by Peter Suciu • 2d •


Summary and Top Points You Need to Know: The A-10 Warthog has been a crucial close air support (CAS) aircraft for the U.S. Air Force for decades, known for its durability and effectiveness in combat.
 
-Despite its success, the Air Force aims to retire the A-10, arguing it is too old and susceptible to modern anti-aircraft systems.

-However, supporters believe a modern replacement, incorporating new technologies and maintaining the A-10's key features like the iconic Gatling gun, is essential for future CAS missions.
