> Turn our old A-10 Warthogs into modern Missileers.> Remove the Avenger.> Insert APG-71.> Add as many Phoenixs to the wings as you can.> Give to Taiwan.> Unless the J-35's stealth is perfect then Chinese aircraft will get clapped the second they enter Taiwanese airspace.
Take all the GAu-8 8 cannons out of every A-10 put 1 or 2 in an AC-130 gunship and see what damage they can do.
>>65086991Sure, except replace the A-10 with Textron Scorpion and the Phoenix with Gunslinger since it's not 1973.
>>65086991Honestly, they should remove the reddit cannon and just turn the A-10 into a missile truck.
>>65087011Scorp has the lift capacity for multiple standard 3s?
>>65086991This is going to be more expensive than just buying F-35s ir F-16s
>>65087045It's SM-6, not SM-3, and without the first stage booster. A Scorpion could carry four of them with a reduced fuel load.
>>65087003Why not fit b52 with as many downward pointing gau-8's as they can carry?Then you would fly a wide formation of them above the target area and rain down fire on everything
>>65086991The J35 stealth is as real as Chyna radars working
>>65087038>>65086991The F15EX is the modern day missile truck and speed is a significant factor in BVR warfare so the A10 would be shit at it
