    You mean the A-10.

    When I was at camp USAFA the most impressive sight was when two A-10's went vertical. It was very impressive.

    The chain gun fires depleted uranium slugs.

    But even back in the 80's there was talk of the A-10 being phased out of service having the F-16 take over its job.

    I don't understand why beheading is perceived the way it is. Slitting the throat is what kills the person. Nothing is felt after that. Beheading is just for shock.

    All beheadings. After I'm dead you can do whatever with my body. I will not feel it. Cut my head off. Who cares? Not me, I'll be dead.
