Makes some amount of sense, since the A-10 was designed to counter Soviet tanks.
But then again, since a good chunk of the right in the US Congress won't support funding to replenish weapons systems we have already provided, throwing another weapon system into the mix makes no sense.

I don’t have the answers here, but a direct Chinese attempt on Taiwan, is a whole different level than Iran’s proxies… That would be the Super Bowl of shooting matches…

This report came out before the israel incursion into gaza and it did not reflect the latest shooting war on the Persian Gulf with the Yemen surrogates.

That's why I said in another post that we should take the 360 billion dollars from the joke. Inflation reduction act and have Congress. Remove it and have the next President reassign it to ammunition. Reciply of all servicesThat's why I said in another post that we should take the 360 billion dollars from the joke. Inflation reduction act and have Congress. Remove it and have the next President reassign it to ammunition resupply of all services. We shouldn't be bribing other countries to go green when our own war stock is depleted. President Biden also announced us too because we're running out of ammunition, giving it to Ukraine.

The only way China can reunify with Taiwan is from within. It would be a long slow process but the Chinese are ok with slow.

There are a number of places around the world where the A-10 would be welcomed.
