Coast Guard HA-10

[Atlantis]

With increasing levels of piracy against US shipping in 2013, the USCG acquired several refurbished AMARC A-10's to use as anti-piracy aircraft, due to their intimidation factor. Nothing says "don't screw around with our ships"  quite like the bad end of a GAU-8 Avenger. In addition to to their anti-piracy role, these aircraft can also be outfitted for SAR and weather reconnaissance.

This is a Revell Snaptite A-10 for that I bought for whiffing fodder and I thought it would look rather sexy in Coast Guard colors.

You need to include a pod that looks like an air-droppable self inflating liferaft. Bright Orange of course.

That's a spicey meatball!!!!

I can think up all sorts of missions for that bastich.  Put some droptanks on her, and we can have some fun.

Very nice job!!!

Evil idea - nice one! 

In addition to drop tanks and liferafts (both good ideas), how about a FLIR pod?

Could have applications in the Carribean too: take some drug runner's confiscated speedboat and use it as a target while filming the whole thing. Then show the film for free all over the region......
