About
The A‑10A "Warthog" is a Tier 6 U.S. attack jet made for close air support. It has strong armor, twin engines, and carries the powerful 30 mm GAU‑8 cannon, bombs, rockets, and up to two AIM‑9L missiles.
Playstyle
Climb first, then dive to attack ground targets using bombs, rockets, and the cannon. Stay with teammates and use its large number of flares and chaff to survive. Avoid fast dogfights — it's better at slow, powerful attacks.
