...err, what? It is a very nimble plane.
- BariumBlue 5y agoI double checked by searching on google and fond this: "The A-10 is not agile, nimble, fast or quick,” A-10 Lt. Col. Ryan Haden said. https://nationalinterest.org/blog/buzz/tough-nails-10-warthog-just-simply-unstoppable-190496 https://nationalinterest.org/blog/buzz/tough-nails-10-wartho... Haha, straight from the horse's mouth, I did not expect to get such a perfect quote.
- captainredbeard 5y agoWell, compared to an F-16 or other fighter that is true. Compared to everything else, e.g. general aviation, they are quite nimble. I've watched them perform aerobatic maneuvers.
