Oh, and the A-10 is still in service, and the most useful weapon we have in the current war we are fighting, and are being updated with new wings etc. The F-35 won't be able to replace it, ever, and at the rate the program is being sabotaged by the govt, will be 10 more yrs. We are going to pay a terrible price at some point for doing away with our advantages.
You can thank sec def Robert Gates for this, under two presidents. ALL of are gone, cut up or used as ground targets, including the new D models and the upgraded Bs, with new engines that didn't kill so many pilots and were far cheaper to maintain, new radar, strike capability etc. It was an act of stupidity to take them out of service, and an act of treason to scrap them after so much recent improvement. They flew circles around most other fighters in ACM and could kill you at 110 miles. Pity.
There's 2 planes this country's warriors will surely miss...the F-14 Tomcat(multi-role fighter) And the A-10 Thunderbolt...especially now...we don't have a close support craft like the A-10.
Do we remember it? Bitch, please! We cant forget it! This is the 80's icon. Every boy's dream back them was to be Maverick and flight the damn beauty!
Wish my government bought a few to supplement our F-18 fleet with a longer range fighter. That way at least the F-14 would still get to do what it did so well.
