For those going to the game, watch for the A-10 Warthogs during the flyover... they were buzzing the skies around town yesterday. Extremely badass feeling yesterday looking up from the Lowes parking lot and seeing one flying low overhead... Roll Tide. Roll Warthogs. Roll America.

What we called "The Tank Killer!"

I worked on these for a few years. A flying tank …

I was the maintenance superintendent for an A-10 wing at both Suwon Air Base, Korea, and Bentwaters Air Base, England. That definitely is one bad-ass aircraft for the air-to-ground mission. During the Gulf War, I saw one with one engine knocked out and 3/4 of the tail section shot off and it returned to King Fahd International Airport, Saudi Arabia (Our operating Base) safely. We need to send the Ukrainians some of these, instead of the F-16.

Aren't they supposed to be phasing them out? Was that ever finalized? I hope not.

“Congress approved the service’s request to cut 42 A-10s across the fleet in fiscal 2024, including six at Moody. The service plans to retire the other 48 at Moody through fiscal 2028.”

They're confident. This Bama team hasn't been dominant and TN has shown signs of life. Previous years, I remember not seeing hardly any orange in Tuscaloosa. I remember as a student in 2015 expecting to see more TN fans because they had a decent squad. Nope. The most I ran into were family members of players on the squad.
