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

That makes the US a war party, in Russia's eyes.


If you want a full war between NATO and Russia, and in the consequence a nuclear war, lend those A-10 to Ukraine and say goodbye to Ney York, Washington, Boston, Chicago, L.A., Frisco, Detroit, Houston... Not to mention the metropoles in Europe. Becasue that is what in the long run will happen.

Biden will not do it, so much is certain. And say thankyou to him for not doing it.
