I saw one of these A-10s over near Lebanon, MO when I lived there. It must have come from Fort Leonard Wood which was not too far away. ;)

Not a doctored photo, this is honestly how much of the internal space of the A-10 is devoted to that tank killer gun:

Those things are bad-ass, they used to have a bunch of them based at Grissom AFB, Bunker Hill, IN. If nothing else, we knew we were safe from Iraqi tank invasion.

That depleted uranium would go right through a stolen AMC Pacer.

Iraqi tank invasion.

The U.N. is making us clean up all that spent DU ammo over there.

It is being sealed in drums and sent to Idaho where it is being buried in old mine shafts where the low level radiation can harm no one at all. ;)

I'd be worried if I lived in Idaho, or payed taxes. :)
