The US Air Force Is Testing Its New A-10 The Warthog Battle Aircraft

The US Air Force Is Testing Its New A-10 The Warthog Battle Aircraft.
"Something is rotten in the state of Denmark." These words, written by Shakespeare, reflect the situation in the high offices of the US Air Force. This branch of the American military was developed around the legendary attack aircraft Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II, nicknamed “Warthog.”
Some high-ranking officials want to send Warthog to a landfill.
The US Air Force currently has seven fighter models in operation, but the reformers intend to reduce that number to four.
It is obvious that the four we are talking about are the F-22, F-35, 15EX, and F-16. Looks like there is no room for A-10, and when the Next Generation Air Dominance (NGAD) fighter appears, then one of those four will also have to go to the junkyard. By the way, we talk about the American sixth generation fighter in another one of our videos.
Other officials insist on extending its operation until 2040. This is despite the fact that this particular aircraft entered service back in 1977! Half of the viewers on our channel are probably younger than Warthog.
So, who will win this fight?
Thanks to lobbyists who wish to preserve Warthog, Northrop Grumman Systems recently received $185.7 million. The modernization program was named Precision Engagement, and the upgraded Warthog will receive the A-10 PE index.
Is Precision Engagement a reality?
Absolutely. Only a new A-10 can replace the A-10!
We were able to get our hands on a Military Construction Program document for 2022, which mentions the old Warthog, among other fighters. All upgrades to military air bases, runways, hangars, and other supporting infrastructure found on these bases must be carried out with consideration for the requirements presented by A-10 PE.
What components and assemblies will the Precision Engagement upgrade affect?
