Score: A-10 Warthog 1 Taliban 0

Taliban fighter is caught planting IEDs on cam and gets smoked by the A-10.

GRAPHIC but very cool.
Buy a veteran a cup of coffee or a beer. :cheers:

Awesome clip. Love the soundtrack. I'm just thinking about how big that depleted uranium round they use on the Warthog is...

It's not that big, but it is very heavy. I worked these when stationed at RAF Bentwaters in the early 90s. When sitting in the cockpit running one it's kinda cool know that a big @ss gun is right under you.
