In 2015, the 25th Fighter Squadron, part of the 51st Fighter Wing at Osan Air Base, South Korea, operated the A-10C Thunderbolt II. Nicknamed the \"Assam Draggins,\" the 25th FS provided close air support, forward air control, and combat search and rescue missions in the Korean Peninsula. Flying the upgraded A-10C, with enhanced avionics and precision weapon capabilities, the unit trained extensively alongside Republic of Korea forces to maintain readiness against potential threats from North Korea. The A-10C\'s durability, firepower, and long loiter time made it a key asset in the region\'s deterrence and defense strategy.
Fairchild A-10C Thunderbolt II Designed to counter criticism that the US Air Force wasn\'t serious enough about close air support, the A-10 Thunderbolt II was first flown on May 10, 1972. The Thunderbolt II is a single-seat attack aircraft used to protect ground forces from tanks, armored vehicles and other ground targets. Nicknamed \"Warthog,\" the A-10 is highly maneuverable at low speeds and low altitude and is capable of short take-offs and landings. It is designed for easy maintenance-many of its parts are interchangeable between the right and left side and it can operate from bases with limited facilities. The A-10 is expected to remain in service until 2028 or beyond.
