The Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is reportedly asking for the equipment and tools to fight the Russians, specifically, 3 squadrons of the A-10 Thunderbolt. A squadron is typically anywhere between 12 to 24 aircraft.

This aircraft and its gun system were designed to counter an armored assault in Europe. They proved effective in Desert Storm’s target-rich environment, quite similar to the current advancing Russian force. They also became the infantry’s friend in close-air support missions.
The United States Air Force has deployment packages ready to go. The whole transfer to the Ukrainian Air Force could be completed in days after congressional authorization.

The Ukrainians have proved their bravery. Under lend-lease, similar to the U.S and U.K agreements of WW2, this aircraft would be a great help to the Ukraine. If this deal is done, I hope the appropriate armament is included in the packages.
