US Air Force deploys A-10 ‘Warthogs’ to Philippines

I don't think they will hear that. but they will definitely feel it.

These aren’t the very best anymore and outdated, still a menace to any force not organized or first world quality.

[@randallchan2001]

The A-10 is still being used by the USA 🇺🇸 Military in 2024 and the future? Or is the USA 🇺🇸 selling them to the Philippines 🇵🇭? Either way great tank killer. 🇺🇲🇵🇭👍

[@ImpendingJoker]

@@Slick-vo9hp There is no better CAS aircraft than the A-10. Just because it's 47 years old doesn't mean it's not the best.

Practicing how to sink ships. A-10s can't take off an aircraft carrier, but the Philippines is an unsinkable aircraft carrier...

[@Dane-o7q]

BRRRRRRRT. now don't come back!

[@replynotificationsdisabled]

a10s don't carry munitions for much anything besides infantry support. but okay, guess it shall drop a nuke huh?

[@andrean2247]

Unsinkable also mean unmoveable. So its a big stationary target.

[@ssarsi]

Welcome to my country, A10 warthogs 🇵🇭

[@randyross5630]

I was building a Building on a Small Airport (not a hanger although that's generally what we built at Airports), right near that Air Feild was an Air Force Base (Marines?) and they Fly a couple A-10s over the Field, not very high above us, and the Pilots could tell we were more than Amused, and Honestly I am Pretty sure we were doing that thing Kids do to Trucks when sitting in the Back Seat of their Parents car on the Highway, and Pump your Arm Up and Down Telling him to Blow on the Horn. So those A-10s came over for another Pass, when I was on a 10 foot Step Ladder near the Top, on the 2nd Floor, and those A-10s came by barely above Tree Level, and One of them Tipped His Wings Down below the Tree Line, right above my Head, the Wing Probably Less than 50 Feet From Me, and those Things in Real Life, are Pretty Big! Pretty Awesome Looking. I have seen the Zumwalt a few times when I lived 25 minutes above the Ship Yard making them, and seen a Carrier being Decommissioned when I was Doing Major Repairs to a Big Hotel in Rhode Island literally up the Road from it, with the Cops and Shipyard Workers calling me and my Boss the Hardest Working People on the Island (since we were doing 7 days a week 10 hours Repairing a Hotel that had a Documentary about it being the Most Expensive Ruined Hotel, so they were Happy it was getting back to order), but when I took a Wrong Turn, missed the On Ramp, and Had to Circle Back or something like that, I stumbled upon a Battleship! Parked on the River, and Bam it was Right there in front of me, and that was Pretty Cool. However what wasn't cool was when I was 16 working on a Building building storage units inside it (some months before I went Full Time Year Round when I was Supposed to be in High School, but the Corrupt School could pocket allot of money not Educating People so they Ran Me Out, so I started working with the Former Town Selectmen and a Kid in my Grade use to be my Neighbors Father) and it was Up the River where the Subs are Built and Maintained, however we did not know that at the time, and we had the Keys to the Crane, Crane Operator nice enough to leave them for us, so we could Grab Onto the Crane Wire feet on the Crane Ball and Jump into the River (a Deep River) like he had done with the Guys before, and the Forman was on the Crane Ball good bit out over the River, and Fairly High, and was about to Do a Big Jump, but than Was Freaking Out, and Waving to Come Back in, and we all seen it too, a Wake, with a Black Shadow under it, Huge, Giant, so we all Believed in Sea Beasts! Till we told the Story a Few Times and were told that is the River the Subs go up and down, and Obviously it was a Sub, which sure made sense, Compared to the 400 Foot Shark we all thought we Seen! Don't Worry Pal, we'll Load You Up with the Good Stuff, because one thing we will not tell you again is Macarthur's Famous Words "I Shall Return"! Because we Aren't Leaving You This Time, and the Chinese Will Never Make it Past the 1st Island Chain! My Politics I give out to US Officals and Representatives that surely listen to me X amount is to Load the Philippines Up with Arms!

This is similar to the Typhon missile system. The A-10s will remain behind after the Americans leave.

[@Ryan_Christopher]

No. The planes belong to their units. None are slated for transfer to the PAF.

[@OneBiasedOpinion]

@@Ryan_Christopheris that how the Typhons got left? They were slated for transfer when they arrived?

[@kenafford]

Why wouldn't the USA consider granting a defense loan to the Philippines for the acquisition of a warthog aircraft for their military?

[@ssarsi]

Because china invaded my country silently, and it is all because of the past administration a pro-china. China can get access to anything including in our military. You dont want that poweful US warplanes fall into the hands of china.

[@AnimaRandom]

Well Philippines does have spare money for equipments but we cant get any good deals which is our issue Rn, only india, south Korea and EU given us great deals for equipments. If US will give us a good deal we can buy A-10. Though rn our focus is missile defense and missile offence cause that's the fastest route to protect our maritime borders And A-10 probably wont be useful for us since we will be dealing ships Anyway, i think US will be talking to phil about HIMARS since AFP were like "yeah..that's cool..say how much for one himars"

Can a 30 mm BRRRRT burst rip through the top deck of a Chinese warship? We all know Hogs can carry enough bombs and missiles that would easily destroy a such a target but would an old fashioned naval strafing run rip through their ships?

[@aymanrahman2332]

Do you think a Chinese warship and it’s onboard missiles will let a A10 get close enough ? Chinese air defense missiles have 100-200 km range,while even its anti air guns are of bigger caliber. Other than that ,let’s also not forget china has over 2,000 fighter jets in operational condition ,each and everyone can fly up to 2000 km/h, The A10 doesn’t even hit 700

[@oliverrust8993]

A10 s are the best

[@MikBar-nj8jq]

I would have a fleet of 3000 a10

[@TheDaysOfGlory]

@Mik If PAF gets 24 A-10Cs they need to wait till newer & upgraded FA-50s to have some fighter coverage (CAP, combat air patrol) and load up on AGM-65 Mavericks which the PAF should be able to afford.

[@DOI_ARTS]

They just help in giving cover to Syrian rebels. They're not yet obsolete

[@OneBiasedOpinion]

Modern anti-aircraft designs make these gunships incredibly vulnerable unless the area has been scrubbed _completely_ clear of just about anything besides the odd MANPAD. Sending them to the Phillipines isn’t some ace-in-the-hole move: it’s a promise that there are going to be other, much more terrifying aircraft clearing the way for them. And an A-10 with clear targets and no anti-air to shoot them down is a rare glimpse of exactly how much raw hate the average American weapon system can dispense at one time.
