USAF Surplus A-10 Warthogs Already Have An Interested Buyer

Avionics

Few US aircraft set the military aviation enthusiast’s comments sections ablaze as much as the Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II (aka Warthog). As the United States Air Force slowly divests its A-10s, there seems to be a country looking to snap them up and give them a new lease on life. The most obvious recipient is Ukraine, but the Air Force secretary has suggested Ukraine isn’t particularly interested. So, if not Ukraine, then who? The A-10 was designed to be a tank and armored car killer in a hypothetical WWIII blunting Soviet armored forces as they streamed into West Germany. How effective it would have been in that battle that never happened will never be known (especially if it’s not to be used in Ukraine).
