Never posted here before, but just curious on what everyone's favourite aircraft, old to modern, are.

Post pics of cool/fave aircraft of the ages I guess!

A10, pic related, always loved it as a kid, great workhorse that does the job its built for perfectly. I hope one day, when they do retire them, that somebody soon develops a new A10, just updated, new airframes etc but same design behind it.

Its gun is worthless for destroying tanks and its armor is completely pointless. It's nearly defenseless. The gun isn't even good for counter insurgency because the CEP is bigger than many bombs, is less potent, and is not adaptable. All it's good for is delivering bombs in a permissible environment which drones do much better for far lower risk and lower cost. They will not be designing an "updated" version for the same reason there's no interest in an "updated" zeppelin.

Any kind of A-6 variant, mostly the EA-6B prowler.

Any aircraft that can cook a chicken at 20m with its jamming pods is ok by me.

Focke-Wulf Fw 189 Uhu is also pretty damn cool.

The thing that will replace the A-10 will be a high altitude aircraft that is effectively a gargantuan flying power bank with a massive fucking laser cannon. It will be able to focus on a tank and within seconds reduce the tank itself to half-melted slag whilst turning the ground under it to glass and ash. This weapon will be called the Eye Of Sauron.
>>
>>34571640
Designations for said plane include Cyclops, Medusa, and Beholder. Medusa and Beholder because of defensive systems and secondary laser arrays and countermeasures.
>>
>>34571664
As a counter to this plane, some country will produce a tank plated entirely in chrome. This will not work.
>>
>>34571505
I dont. It mostly serves as FAC - forward air controller due to its long linger time. It calls in the targets and aircraft like the F-16 actually hit them.
Only the army fags seem to care about the A-10, what with the brrrrrt meme and all.

its not.

See the link in >>34572178
"Non-flammable Helium, contained in a high strength, multi-layered laminate, provides the necessary lift"

Usually airships use their lighter than air properties to fly, otherwise, what's the point?

>>
>>34563231
You maybe want to have spoilered that.
>>
>>34563582
The aircraft uses bombs to kill tanks ya fucking dip. The gun is for lighter vehicles, for killing the tank's support.
The only armor on the A-10 is the titanium bathtub surrounding the pilot. The rest of the aircraft gets by on a sturdy frame and redundancy out the ass, shit can fly when missing a wing and an engine, and shot hydraulics.
>>
>>34572548
>The aircraft uses bombs to kill tanks ya fucking dip
not him, but generally hellfire or maverick missiles are the go-to weapon for the anti-armor role. Not bombs.

Brrrt mostly just scares people on the ground. it sounds cool but its not really a precision weapon. Apaches are far more precise in this role, being able to hover in one place and fuck shit up from a distance.
>>
>>34572646
>Brrrt mostly just scares people on the ground
It doesn't only scares them. A hundred of shells at once turn your environment into a cloud of fragments of metal/rock/wood, it's pretty deadly and also very efficient to force the survivors to flee.
