Is this the video in which the flight lead orders his wingman to stay on station and observe, only to then hear his wingman yeehar in and make a gun run right after him?
Absolute madness, surreal
The only time I every cried during combat was when we (route clearance patrol) were close to being overrun and a pair of A-10s swooped in and spread the most beautiful music of freedom across the bodies of those about to swarm us. I will forever thank any A-10 pilot for saving mine and my brother’s lives.
Afghanistan summer of 2012, Badghis Province
A/C: HAWG IN
GFC: Bring it in
…
Love the healthy burst followed by “good hit hog, good hit” you know that pilot feels good after that
Afghanistan?
The phrase “Danger Close” definitely hits hard like the 30mm tungsten rounds.
Hearing that type 3 and then danger close put so many red flags in my head. Especially with a trigger happy hog. That s just how to get court martial 101. Glad he hit the spot because many other didnt.
Glab to have seen the BRRRRRRT….! of freedom in action
