Superb idea...if it ain't broke then don't fix it, but minor improvements are always welcome Just build more A-10s!!!!....and Britain, BUY some .

shoot them.

Who? The protestors. 

Well, I meant the horses but your suggestion has much more appeal!

[Captain Canada]

That is very cool ! I like the idea of a smaller A-10 !

[Dizzyfugu]

I like the concept and the Swedish Forces as an operator, too.
There's a decent 1:100 snap-fit A-10 from Revell that could be turned into a 1:72 whif...

Besides, I stumbled across this Swedish mini A-10 on a Hungarian website, maybe as an alternative to the Saab 38?

Looks like a scale-o-rama-ed RC A-10 with wingtip launhc rails? Nice idea, though. 

SAAB B3LM or 1642-06 was a "real" design study though that did not get off the paper unfortunately. Was dropped in favour of B3LA attack/trainer and A20 Advanced Viggen, which were eventually combined to become JAS39 Gripen.

Probably got a samovar stainless Birko urn in the back next to the spare wheel and the jack...

[Dizzyfugu]

Twin Il-10, anyone?

[Captain Canada]

Just looks wrong to me. Maybe it's the way it's drawn ? Looks like an easy target or somat ? Neat idea tho.

[Dizzyfugu]

I think it was quikcly tinkered together, since the landing gear is also not consistent.

Re the "Crusader Mk.IV", Commando Comics has a story where DAK is shipping captured T-34's from the Ostfront to the Western Desert. In case you're a Briton or a Finn you should guess by now how the story goes from there.

SPOILER: The British protag and his companions naturally steal one and proceed to smash about a division's worth of Krauts in their drive towards the British lines. Some sidekicks are killed for the melodrama, but in the end an airstrike ex machina takes out the remaining Beutepanzers, all is jolly good and well, and it's tea and crumpets for everyone.
