Any aircraft that gets fragged properly is going down, so that part of the equation is pointless.

The A-10 will never be retired - Its already been on the chopping block 10 times before, but its just too useful!

And more importantly they dont have a plane yet that can do it better.

Anyone else think that the Osprey sorta looks like the Terminator HKs?

Just switch the turboprops for jet engines and walla! Hm.... still need a skynet to control them though...:hmm:

I thought this was being scrapped, too. It seems like all of the cool stuff is/was. I really liked the RAH-66, too.

Seems like a good aircraft, though.
