This is the A-10 Thunderbolt. It is literally a plane built around a gun, which in this case is a GAU8-A Avenger. It uses its canon for shooting uranium depleted shells at enemy armor, which can can be killed with as little as three hits. Although not a dogfighter, the Thunderbolt, also called the Warthog, carries two AIM-9 Sidewinder missles which it uses in desperate situations. Other ordinance carried by this plane includes: Maverick anti-tank missle, Mk 82 GP Bomb, Mk 84 GP Bomb, Mk 20 Rockeye II, CBU-52 anti-personnel munition, CBU-58 Cluster Bomb, Fuel Air Explosive, napalm, and rocket pods. It uses terrain following radar to avoid detection by enemy radar and/or enemy planes.
