In this Afterburn Podcast episode with retired Navy fighter pilot Seamus 'Flats' Flatley, we dive into the history and challenges behind adopting light attack aircraft like the A-29 Super Tucano for U.S. military use. Flats shares firsthand insights on the demand for versatile, low-cost air support and the hurdles faced in getting these aircraft integrated, from budget cuts to competition with U.S.-made alternatives. Discover the behind-the-scenes decisions, the congressional roadblocks, and how allies like Jordan and the UAE have successfully used these aircraft for border security.
@mikeflashmcvay sits down with "Flats" Flatley on the latest episode of the Afterburn Podcast. Flat's Grandfather was one of the developers of the fighter tactic that helped defeat the Japanese Zero's during WWII.
