  • @thetaxifactory A10's do that because they are so slow and when they are pulling out of an attack run they are exposed to any type of Surface to Air missile. They are dropping flares just to clarify

  • What are the planes dropping that look like flares? One at a time in the beginning and in groups at the end?

  • Incredible...always have wanted to see...hear...that GAU-8 do its work. From a safe distance of course. Curious if it's possible for a civilian see an A-10 do this.

  • I can only imagine that area they are shooting at is just a giant crater at the end of this demo...LOVED IT!

  • Agreed 100%.

  • Another awesome vid mate. Love the sound of that GAU-8.

  • I think the A10C thunderbolt II is the best tankkiller of the world,..and the Apache helicopter

  • thanks for correcting me, and thanks for serving our country, unless youre family then thank your family member

  • It's not a public demonstration. The kid you hear is probably the child of someone serving in the US Air Force. The demo was open to members of our armed services and their family.
