The A-10C Thunderbolt II, also known as the "Warthog," is the first Air Force aircraft specifically designed for close air support of ground forces. These twin-engine jet aircraft are simple, effective, and survivable. They excel against light maritime attack aircraft and all ground targets, including tanks and armored vehicles. With excellent maneuverability at low airspeeds and altitude, A-10Cs can loiter near battle areas for extended periods. Equipped with precision-guided munitions, night vision systems, and titanium armor, they offer unmatched survivability during close air support missions
