Country:  | The thing about the GAU-8/A and the A-10 Thunderbolt is a first in aviation.. The plane was designed AROUND the gun..... They had the gun manufactured, and then made a plane that could carry it.... Truly amazing aviation right there....

| That is a very innacurate statement.... Better isnt always Best....
The Russian Mi-24 vs Apache
The Russian Mig 29 vs F-15
The Russian La-7 vs P-51D
The Russian T-72 vs M1A1A
I think u need to retract ur statement uless u can prove it....
