Philippine Military Aircrafts

[noy.juan]

But they have bases esp. near the malaysian border.

Remember when there's this operation on an island near Jolo which is a training ground for the terrorists then bisag na limpyo nila ang enemy base, na japun casualties which include a very young and fresh graduate Lt. from PMA(forgot his name).

bottomline is, those A-10 gatling guns can provide air support, I mean you can cut a tree with an enemy treehouse with those bullets right?

A-10's ability to fly low is what makes it okay.

ako rapud ni since, wala man tae en.ani.

why get A-10 if the OV-10 can bomb them accurately (as what experienced during the 2000 Campaign)

A-10 is very good for CAS i even voted for it when our defense forum ask us what would be our best bet for CAS or replacement for OV-10

OV-10 is very effective platform, there are lot of rooms for advancement...

since OV-10 is designed to be an forward observer plane, it can spot ground movement more since its speed is much slower compared to A-10, here are my bet's if ever we get a replacement for OV-10
1) Embraer EMB 314 Super Tucano
2) A-10

why Embraer EMB 314 Super Tucano?, because its operational cost is much lesser than the A-10 ($400 per flight hour), and this plane is made to be a COIN plane. and BTW Xe Services LLC (formely Blackwater) got Super Tucano as support for their employees

we have 0 zeros. maybe you're referring to the T-34 mentors which were used for close air support

hopefully the "MAGIC 3" will be in effect when we already have the refurbished and the plan to acquire C-130, we badly needed this transport...
