Description
The Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II is a single-seat, twin turbofan engine, straight wing jet aircraft developed by Fairchild-Republic for the United States Airforce (USAF). It is commonly referred to by the nicknames " Warthog" or " Hog", although the A-10's official name comes from theRepublic P-47 Thunderbolt, a World War II fighter-bomber, effective at attacking ground targets. The A-10 was designed for close air support
(CAS) of friendly ground troops, attacking armored vehicles and tanks,
and providing quick-action support against enemy ground forces. It entered service in 1976 and is the only production-built aircraft that has served in the USAF that was designed solely for CAS. Its secondary mission is to provide forward air controller–airborne support, by directing other aircraft in attacks on ground targets.
Aircraft used primarily in this role are designated OA-10.
