USAF - The A-10 Thunderbolt/Warthog

[Acid]

Pretty sure it was British troops, which I would guess also means british planes but I could be wrong.

No it was the british troops who got shot at by thier own American air support :/

One bad thing about this plane.
When your engines are out its like flying a brick.

That's why it has two engines.

Oddly enough one flew over Purdue this morning, haha.

[blaman]

I want to be you, Shinji, right about now.

Also add that the gun USUALLY fires depleted uranium rounds.

When i watched that, was one of the guys injured?
He said he shot himself, but that could be me.

If he had been hit by that, he wouldn't have been able to say he was injured.

please note all officers are college graduates and all pilots are officers

[StarDust]

I heared that the machinegun can stall the plane

Wasn't this the one that replaced the P-40?
or the P-38?

No, the name "Thunderbolt" was a tribute to the P-47. And it wasn't replaced, it was retired in 1966.

Ummm. . .No. Completely different erras. . . The P-40 and the P-38 are propeller planes from WWII. . .

[Messes]

So uh, nice bump?

[Joker Card]

What was that like a 2 month bump?

No stuff.
That's why he's saying the A10 replaced them.
