  1. I found this interesting about the Warthog. "The A-10 was used in combat for the first time during the Gulf War in 1991, with 132 being deployed.[97][11] A-10s shot down two Iraqi helicopters with the GAU-8 cannon. . . . In the beginning of the war, A-10s flew missions against the Iraqi Republican Guard, but due to heavy attrition, from the 15 February they were restricted to within 20 nautical miles (37 km) of the southern border.[103][104] *A-10s also flew missions hunting Iraqi Scud missiles*." Perhaps Warthogs could hunt Putinist missiles fired deep into Ukraine at civilian targets?

  2. People seemed to get a kick out of running our own human-powered "algorithm" to correct YouTube's.

  3. While we're making suggestions, check out TVP World, it's an English channel coming out of Poland and has a ton of unique coverage of Ukraine.

  4. Here's a fun fact for you. In the first Gulf War, "The A-10 had a mission capable rate of 95.7 percent, flew 8,100 sorties, and launched 90 percent of the AGM-65 Maverick missiles fired in the conflict."

  5. Based on previous training instructors' testimonials, expect the Ukrainians to display Top Gun performance. They seem like nice guys but they go vampire when they smell Orc blood.

  6. There's a sad side, those guys are likely being tortured. Putin is medieval evil.

  7. The Warthog does appear vulnerable to hits, although it has high survivability. In 2003, "The A-10 also flew 32 missions in which the aircraft dropped propaganda leaflets over Iraq." Those fearless Ukrainian chopper pilots suggest some real Cossacks might give it a go in combat. You're probably right that we shouldn't encourage them go berserker.

  8. NO! We need him here.
