That's why it's called a warthog, and there is nothing better at close ground support and tank killing!

Great aircraft. Government wanted to shut this aircraft down, military fought to save it. I just read where they are refitting all sorts of new electronics to this plane along with new wings and armament. This will keep it in operation for several more years.

Some see it as ugly, but ground troops love it. It’s a great tank killer and ground support aircraft and provides good pilot protection in those low altitude runs. I think it’s a great aircraft - thanks for posting.

A bit different perspective
My knowledge of aircraft begins and ends with the Boeing 717; however, I'm not too shabby when it comes to judging an image. Before I do, I'd like to say I'd trust my life to that warthog - he looks like he means business and tho' not pretty he's a handsome figure in the sky. Very impressive angle. Excellent capture, shutterbug.
