A-10?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"No. The A-10 is a frontline U.S. attack jet operated only by the U.S. Air Force, and it is now being retired - it has never been available to civilians. However you can fly several genuine military jets today with MiGFlug. See what is flyable now at https:\/\/migflug.com\/flights-prices\/.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Is the A-10 fast?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"No, and on purpose. It is subsonic (around 700 km\/h max), designed to fly low and slow over the battlefield, loiter, and put fire exactly where ground troops need it. Speed was traded for survivability, endurance and a huge weapons load.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"What is the A-10's famous gun?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"The GAU-8\/A Avenger, a 30mm seven-barrel Gatling cannon carrying 1,174 rounds and firing about 3,900 rounds a minute. The whole aircraft was designed around it - the source of the unmistakable BRRRT.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Is the A-10 still in service?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Yes, but it is being retired through the 2020s.

The A-10 was the reverse. Engineers took the <strong>GAU-8\/A Avenger<\/strong> \u2014 a 30mm rotary cannon roughly the size and weight of a small car \u2014 and built an airplane around it. The result is deliberately ugly, slow and utterly single-minded: a flying gun that also happens to carry bombs and missiles. Born from the close-air-support lessons of Vietnam, the A-10 won a 1972\u201373 fly-off against the Northrop YA-9A and reached the squadrons in 1977.<\/p>\n<p>It is also one of the most <strong>survivable combat aircraft ever fielded<\/strong>. The pilot sits inside a <strong>titanium \u201cbathtub\u201d<\/strong> rated to shrug off armour-piercing rounds; the flight controls have a manual cable-and-crank backup; and the widely spaced, high-mounted engines and redundant systems let a hammered Warthog limp home missing an engine, a tail or half a wing.<\/p>\n<p>Over Iraq in 1991 the A-10 became the tank-buster of Desert Storm, and it has protected troops in every American war since. Ground crews and soldiers love it precisely because it is built to absorb punishment \u2014 and to make that unmistakable <strong>\u201cBRRRT.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"pull\">Ugly on purpose, beautiful in function \u2014 a flying gun designed to soak up punishment and still bring its pilot home.<cite><b>The Warthog<\/b> \u2014 why the troops it protects keep saving it<\/cite><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"deepset\">\n<details class=\"deep\">\n<summary><span class=\"no\">01<\/span><span class=\"t\">The A-10 Warthog\u2019s origin: how Vietnam\u2019s lessons produced a jet built around a cannon<\/span><\/summary>\n<div class=\"a\">\n<p>In the mid-1960s the U.S. Air Force learned a hard lesson over Vietnam: fast jets made poor close-air-support aircraft. They were too quick to see the battlefield, too fragile to loiter in the weeds, and too thirsty to stay overhead. The <strong>A-X (Attack Experimental)<\/strong> programme, launched in 1966\u201367, demanded something new \u2014 a survivable, heavily armed, long-loiter gun platform able to kill Soviet armour in a European war and take battle damage and keep flying.<\/p>\n<p>Fairchild Republic\u2019s <strong>YA-10A<\/strong> beat the Northrop YA-9A in a competitive fly-off. The prototype first flew on <strong>10 May 1972<\/strong> and the type reached initial operational capability in <strong>October 1977<\/strong>. Roughly 716 were built into the mid-1980s, and the fleet was later rebuilt to the digital <strong>A-10C<\/strong> standard with precision weapons and a glass cockpit. No other combat jet has ever been so completely defined by a single weapon.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<hr class=\"divider\">\n<section>\n<div class=\"wrap\">\n<div class=\"kicker\">Design &amp; Engineering<\/div>\n<h2>What makes the A-10 special<\/h2>\n<div class=\"cards3\">\n<div class=\"ecard\">\n<div class=\"num\">01<\/div>\n<h3>The GAU-8\/A Avenger cannon<\/h3>\n<p>A <strong>seven-barrel 30mm Gatling gun<\/strong> firing depleted-uranium armour-piercing and high-explosive rounds at roughly <strong>3,900 rounds a minute<\/strong>. The whole gun-and-ammunition system weighs about as much as a compact car, and it is mounted slightly off-centre so the firing barrel sits on the jet\u2019s axis. Its recoil is strong enough to be felt in flight \u2014 the source of the unmistakable \u201cBRRRT.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"ecard\">\n<div class=\"num\">02<\/div>\n<h3>The titanium bathtub<\/h3>\n<p>The cockpit is wrapped in a tub of titanium armour \u2014 roughly <strong>550&nbsp;kg<\/strong> \u2014 rated to stop hits up to 23mm. Flight controls include <strong>manual reversion<\/strong>: cranks, cables and pulleys that let a pilot with zero hydraulics still fly and land. The A-10 can keep flying with one engine, one tail, one elevator and half a wing shot away.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"ecard\">\n<div class=\"num\">03<\/div>\n<h3>Twin high-mounted TF34 turbofans<\/h3>\n<p>Two <strong>General Electric TF34-GE-100<\/strong> turbofans are podded high and far aft. The placement shields them from ground fire and debris on rough forward airstrips, keeps the infrared signature down and eases engine changes.

Carrying <strong>1,174 rounds<\/strong> in a drum behind the cockpit, it spits 30mm shells so fast the individual shots blur into a single ripping growl. Fired from distance, the rounds often strike before the sound of the gun arrives. It was designed to punch through the top armour of Soviet tanks, and the airframe \u2014 even the off-centre nose gear \u2014 was arranged to make room for it and to keep the firing barrel on the centreline. No other combat aircraft has ever been so completely subordinated to one weapon.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details class=\"deep\">\n<summary><span class=\"no\">03<\/span><span class=\"t\">The A-10\u2019s survivability: why the Warthog is so hard to shoot down<\/span><\/summary>\n<div class=\"a\">\n<p>Survivability was the whole point. Beyond the titanium bathtub, the A-10 has self-sealing, foam-filled fuel tanks, redundant hydraulic flight controls with a full manual-reversion backup, and widely spaced engines and twin tails so that damage to one side need not be fatal. Pilots have flown home jets riddled with hundreds of holes, missing large sections of tail or wing. It is the opposite philosophy to a fast, fragile interceptor: the Warthog is built on the assumption that it <em>will<\/em> be hit, and engineered to bring its pilot back anyway.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<hr class=\"divider\">\n<section>\n<div class=\"wrap\">\n<div class=\"kicker\">Technical Data<\/div>\n<h2>Full specifications<\/h2>\n<div class=\"specgrid\">\n<div class=\"spectable\">\n<h4>Airframe &amp; Performance<\/h4>\n<dl>\n<dt>Crew<\/dt>\n<dd>1<\/dd>\n<dt>Length<\/dt>\n<dd>~16.3 m (53 ft 4 in)<\/dd>\n<dt>Wingspan<\/dt>\n<dd>~17.5 m (57 ft 6 in)<\/dd>\n<dt>Height<\/dt>\n<dd>~4.5 m (14 ft 8 in)<\/dd>\n<dt>Max speed<\/dt>\n<dd>~700 km\/h (~420 mph) \u2014 subsonic by design<\/dd>\n<dt>Service ceiling<\/dt>\n<dd>~13,700 m (45,000 ft)<\/dd>\n<dt>Combat radius<\/dt>\n<dd>Several hundred km; extended by air refuelling<\/dd>\n<dt>Hardpoints<\/dt>\n<dd>11 (8 under-wing, 3 under-fuselage)<\/dd>\n<dt>Payload<\/dt>\n<dd>Up to ~7,260 kg (16,000 lb)<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"spectable\">\n<h4>Propulsion &amp; Armament<\/h4>\n<dl>\n<dt>Engine<\/dt>\n<dd>2 \u00d7 GE TF34-GE-100 turbofans<\/dd>\n<dt>Thrust<\/dt>\n<dd>~9,065 lbf each<\/dd>\n<dt>Main gun<\/dt>\n<dd>1 \u00d7 GAU-8\/A 30mm 7-barrel, 1,174 rounds<\/dd>\n<dt>Weapons<\/dt>\n<dd>AGM-65 Maverick, GBU\/JDAM &amp; laser-guided bombs, rockets, AIM-9 for self-defence<\/dd>\n<dt>First flight<\/dt>\n<dd>10 May 1972 (YA-10A)<\/dd>\n<dt>Built<\/dt>\n<dd>~716 (some sources 713)<\/dd>\n<dt>In inventory<\/dt>\n<dd>~219 remaining (2026)<\/dd>\n<dt>Unit cost<\/dt>\n<dd>~$18.8M (1998 flyaway, historical)<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"deepset\">\n<details class=\"deep\">\n<summary><span class=\"no\">04<\/span><span class=\"t\">The A-10\u2019s numbers and cost: how many Warthogs were built \u2014 and what happens next<\/span><\/summary>\n<div class=\"a\">\n<p>Production totals for the A-10 are usually given as about <strong>716<\/strong>, though some sources cite <strong>713<\/strong>; the difference reflects how prototypes and pre-production airframes are counted.

Warthogs flew thousands of sorties and were credited with destroying huge numbers of Iraqi armour and vehicles \u2014 figures that are official USAF-attributed claims and hard to verify independently, so treat them as claims rather than settled totals. The jet went on to fight in Kosovo, Afghanistan, Iraq and the anti-ISIS campaign.<\/p>\n<div class=\"combat\">\n<div class=\"cstat\"><b>900+<\/b><span>Iraqi tanks credited destroyed, Desert Storm (claimed)<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"cstat\"><b>23<\/b><span>Tanks killed in one day, 25 Feb 1991<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"cstat\"><b>2<\/b><span>Iraqi helicopters downed with the gun<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Compare the <a href=\"https:\/\/migflug.com\/fighter-jet-combat-statistics\/\">combat record of every military aircraft<\/a>.

However you <em>can<\/em> fly several genuine military jets today. See what is flyable now at <a href=\"https:\/\/migflug.com\/flights-prices\/\">migflug.com\/flights-prices\/<\/a>.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Is the A-10 fast?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"a\">No \u2014 and on purpose. It is subsonic (~700 km\/h max), designed to fly low and slow over the battlefield, loiter, and put fire exactly where ground troops need it. Speed was traded for survivability, endurance and a huge weapons load.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>What is that famous gun?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"a\">The GAU-8\/A Avenger, a 30mm seven-barrel Gatling cannon carrying 1,174 rounds and firing about 3,900 rounds a minute. The whole aircraft was designed around it \u2014 the source of the unmistakable \u201cBRRRT.\u201d<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Is the A-10 still in service?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"a\">Yes, but it is being retired through the 2020s. Congress repeatedly reversed a full-fleet retirement, and service life is now extended toward ~2030; the final A-10 pilot class graduated in April 2026 and about 219 aircraft remain.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Why is the A-10 so survivable?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"a\">A titanium \u201cbathtub\u201d around the pilot, self-sealing fuel tanks, redundant flight controls with a manual cable-and-crank backup, and widely spaced high-mounted engines. Pilots have flown home jets full of holes with a tail or half a wing gone.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>How many A-10s were built?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"a\">About 716 (some sources say 713), all for the United States \u2014 it was never exported. Roughly 219 remain in USAF inventory in 2026.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Why is it so ugly \u2014 and so loved?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"a\">Because form followed the gun. The snub nose, drooping wings and tumour-like engine pods all serve one mission: kill armour, protect troops, survive hits. Soldiers love the sound of it overhead, and pilots love that it brings them home.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section>\n<div class=\"ad\">\n<div class=\"adin\">\n<div class=\"kicker\">The part of the collection you can touch<\/div>\n<h2>You can\u2019t fly the A-10.<br \/>These, you can.<\/h2>\n<p class=\"adp\">Some legends only live in museums \u2014 others are fuelled and waiting.
