A-10 Warthog - The World's Most Deadly Fighter Jet
The Warthog has a maximum range of 2,580 miles and a service ceiling of 45,000 feet. This is made possible by 11,000 lb of fuel fed into two General Electric TF34-GE-100A turbofans, each producing 9,065 lbf of thrust. In terms of armament, the Warthog is armed with a 30-mm GAU-8/A Avenger rotary cannon with 1,174 rounds. The aircraft also has 11 hardpoints that combine to carry 16,000 lbs of rockets, bombs, flares, chaff dispensers, electronic countermeasures, and so on. 716 Warthogs have been built, each costing an estimated $10 million. That amounts to a Warthog fleet that costs $7.16 billion, all operated by the US Air Force alone despite foreign interests to purchase the aircraft.
