#A10 FIGHTER JET GAMES UPGRADE#
In 2005, a program was started to upgrade the remaining A-10A aircraft to the A-10C configuration, with modern avionics for use with precision weaponry. The A-10A single-seat variant was the only version produced, though one pre-production airframe was modified into the YA-10B twin-seat prototype to test an all-weather night-capable version. The A-10 also participated in other conflicts such as in Grenada, the Balkans, Afghanistan, Iraq, and against the Islamic State in the Middle East. The A-10 served in the First Gulf War (Operation Desert Storm), the American–led intervention against Iraq's invasion of Kuwait, where the aircraft distinguished itself.
Its ability to take off and land from relatively short runways permits operation from airstrips close to the front lines, and its simple design enables maintenance with minimal facilities. Its airframe was designed for durability, with measures such as 1,200 pounds (540 kg) of titanium armor to protect the cockpit and aircraft systems, enabling it to absorb damage and continue flying. The A-10 was intended to improve on the performance and firepower of the Douglas A-1 Skyraider. Its secondary mission is to direct other aircraft in attacks on ground targets, a role called forward air controller-airborne aircraft used primarily in this role are designated OA-10. The A-10 was designed to provide close air support (CAS) to friendly ground troops by attacking armored vehicles, tanks, and other enemy ground forces it is the only production-built aircraft designed solely for CAS to have served with the U.S. In service since 1976, it is named for the Republic P-47 Thunderbolt, a World War II-era fighter-bomber effective at attacking ground targets, but commonly referred to as the " Warthog" or " Hog". The Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II is a single-seat, twin- turbofan, straight-wing, subsonic attack aircraft developed by Fairchild-Republic for the United States Air Force (USAF).
For other uses, see A10.Īn A-10 of the 74th Fighter Squadron after taking on fuel over Afghanistan (2011) The current two jets full-fill the role of an Air to Air fighter and can be used effectively as an Air to ground platform against personel and vehicles as well."A-10" redirects here. The idea for it has been brought up many times before and has been rejected but you never know. Now about the A-10, if it were to be done in the in it real life way it would be insane op against personal and possible tanks. The B2 while it it self has not been suggested there have been suggestions for a bomber aircraft but they wouldn't really work as the maps aren't big enough to support such a large aircraft, however there has been suggestion about have dropable bombs from the 2 fighter jets currently in the game. While this other jets are cool they could not been done in a way to make them different enough while keeping them balanced.

Your not the first guy to suggest the idea of an A-10 to game as well as other fighter jets, First off the jets you show such as F-22,F-15 and F-35 would not being anything new to game, we already have have a Russian Sukhoi Su-27 (Jet 2 fin) and an american F-16 9(jet 1 fin) that full fill the role of a air to air combat.
