Personally I think they should bring back the A-1 Skyraider

Now that was a aircraft project where they definately got full value for money.

Never was a fan of the F-35 myself. And too expensive it is anyway. It would even be too expensive for an economy in better financial state than it is the case.

In preparation of getting my DVD next week (German release date), I recently did a lot of reading about the A-10C. And the more I learned about it, the more I realised what a great fighterplane it is in the C-version.

If it ain't broke...

And it sure ain't broke.

Go ugly early baby, roll it hot.

Heck didn't the HMS Victory serve for a long time? Keep flying Warthog.
