A-10's aren't tasked with strategic bombing. They are a ground support aircraft. Care to try again?
Not quite. A-10s are close ground support with a tactical specialty in armored vehicle removal. Basically any aircraft can be ground support even a tanker if you're crazy enough to fly low enough to drop fuel and then light it. A-10s inhabit an area of air space that puts them in real danger of many anti-air weapons that other aircraft can avoid and still do their primary job. Care to try again?
