A-10 Thunderbolt II Flies Combat Sortie
U.S. Air Force Airman 1st Class Dylan Prusso, 75th Expeditionary Fighter Generation Squadron crew chief, marshalls a 75th Expeditionary Fighter Squadron A-10 Thunderbolt II for a combat sortie in the U.S. Central Command area of responsibility at Al Dhafra Air Base, United Arab Emirates, April 20, 2022. The deployment of A-10s in the region provides additional capability in the Middle East alongside fighter aircraft. This deployment ensures close air support specialists are able to build upon their skills in environments outside of the United States and ensure combat operations remain sharp across the force.
