In addition, because our aircraft utilized the mission computer from the A-10 I spent days at the Lockheed location that does their system integration work, meeting with A-10 pilots and crew at Ft. Smith AR, and talking with A-10 crew on the flightline at Davis-Monthan AFB. So I have a little more background than what can be captured with a copy/paste of an internet link. Care to qualify your experience with the topic?

Now it makes more sense. You have a personal bias against the A-10. I don't think it is intentional however, because you worked on the other aircraft it would be hard to admit that the competitor is better.
It doesn't take a "rocket surgeon" to search and post some real facts instead of biased opinion. Since you can't produce any, "your honor, I rest my case".
