I saw a post in another location stating that on gunnery practice, the A-10 pilots consistently put 20 rds in an 8 ft square target, and often all 25. It's so valuable as a CAS acft that I understand the USAF is or has trashed it. When I joined the Army, the US Army had the third largest air force in the world. IMNHO we should have retained all tactical ground support aircraft.
The USAF still has the public and much of the government convinced they can win wars without putting boots on the ground. After all of the air strikes in Fallujah it is still going to take the grunts to go in and do what should have been done a year ago.
