Comments by "" (@brucebaxter6923) on "Ukrainian Pilots and Crew to Train on US Aircraft and Russia Looking at Iranian Drones?" video.
30mm rounds might not be cheap and aren’t smart weapons, but 500lb plus BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRT messes stuff up. Those retired a-10s gotta go somewhere.

What to do with retired a-10s?

@kameronjones7139 Can you think of a better way to retire them than by selling them off instead of scrapping them?
1
@kameronjones7139 How do you work that out? Don’t pilots keep flying and keep dieing no matter what they fly?
1
@kameronjones7139 And how does this affect usaf?
1
@kameronjones7139 And? What does any of that have to do with the usaf?
1
@kameronjones7139 Nope. You just seem to think Ukraine is part of USA.

@kameronjones7139 Nope. You are still thinking that Ukraine is part of USA. The a-10 is old, obsolete and heading to the scrap yard. By selling complete planes USA gets far more money than by scrapping them and at the same time get to play hero by providing the same era of equipment that it is going up against. Ukraine doesn’t care what it gets given, anything is better than nothing. There is pretty much no air to air action in Ukraine. The a-10 was designed to hunt armour on the Eastern European plains for the 70’s. Russia is using 70’s era armour and equipment. The a-10 is capable of using dumb weapons very effectively and that’s cheap and plentiful. Sooooo, It’s a win win.

@kameronjones7139 Every comment you wrote. All about stuff that had to do with Ukraine and nothing to do with USA.
1
@kameronjones7139 And again, You are talking about Ukraine being part of USA. What does it matter to usaf?
1
@kameronjones7139 And yet again thinking Ukraine is part of USA. Why this obsession about USA owning the world?
1
@kameronjones7139 Exactly. You don’t understand that Ukraine is not part of USA. Once usaf sells those planes to Ukraine it’s got absolutely nothing to do with USA if the crash them get shot down or use their engines to toast marsh mellows. The second thing you don’t understand is the good guys with the best equipment still die in real wars. Expressed best by a werewolf talking to a vampire in underworld. I guess it never occurred to you that you might actually have to bleed to pull off this little coup.

@Ninja9466 They can make some quick bucks selling off the a-10 instead of scrapping it. That’s all
1
@Ninja9466 So? If it’s lend lease it’s still good for the usaf to send them over there. Ps, citation needed. You might be thinking they want the best but would still accept anything.
