The A-10 was the U.S. Air Force's first single-seat, twin-engine, straight-winged close air support (CAS) aircraft developed by Fairchild Republic. It is tasked with supporting ground forces by attacking tanks, armored vehicles, and other ground targets, and with some air interdiction. In the case of conventional warfare that requires close air support, the development concept of the A-10 is to complement the vulnerability and lack of firepower of combat helicopters and the lack of maneuverability at low altitudes of jet fighters. The original idea came from the Stuka Ju 87 dive bomber operated by the Luftwaffe, and the need for a tactical weapon required air support in anti-armored division combat. The A-10 was used in combat during the Gulf War, Afghanistan, and Iraq War, and has high defense against 20mm class bullets, and is capable of stable flight even when the main wing, engine, tail, etc. are damaged. Designed. In recent years, the development of unmanned attack aircraft has progressed, and it is said that they are on the verge of being retired due to budget considerations. This aircraft is considered to be quite expensive and is not used by anyone other than the U.S. Air Force.
