PJChildhood Crushes: Part 1 of 3 🐗
There is nothing “pretty” about the A-10 Thunderbolt II—and that’s exactly why it was my first aviation crush. It’s essentially a 30mm Gatling gun with a titanium bathtub and wings attached to it.
While other planes are built for the runway, this one was built for the mud.
The Specs:
✈️ : Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II
📐 : 1/72 Scale
🛠️ : Xuja Models
📇 TRUMP CARD STATS:
• NICKNAME: “The Warthog” 🐗
• FIREPOWER: 10/10 (BRRRRRT!)
• DURABILITY: 10/10 (Built like a flying tank)
• SPEED: 4/10 (She’ll get there when she gets there)
The Verdict: She’s rugged, she’s loud, and she’s a legend. Not bad for a “budget” build that’s 80% cheaper than a hobby kit! 💸🔥
Next up for Part 2: The “Rockstar” with the variable-sweep wings. 🕶️⚓
