This video will talk about America's most stubborn attack jet and one the Air Force has even been attempting to retire for over 10 years, however finally the year the service asked permission to retire all 162 of them for good, they get fitted with new parts. We will break apart the A-10 from the gun out: the 19-foot GAU-8 Avenger cannon the entire airframe was designed around, the 1,200-pound titanium bathtub, and the manual-reversion flight controls that once carried a jet home from Baghdad after it had been badly damaged in battle. Then we talk about the upgrades of 2026 the Angry Kitten, a DRFM jammer born as a training villain at Nellis reprogramable between missions, and the probe adapter,, that allows Warthogs to refuel from rescue C-130s below 10,000 feet. It went from first flight to combat in roughly 6 weeks despite a massive political war behind it all.
