Only if, 21C has the prototype already done. Just produce it ASAP.

I think the A-10 prototype needs to be tweeked a bit, from what I hear.

Like I said earlier, I wish Admiral would make an A-10. You know 21st Century would follow soon after. Then we would have two great models to chose from.

About five, yes five, years ago now if memory serves me right. It's been so long I can't remember exactly.

Can we end the A-10 begging?
There are already about a dozen (or more) threads on "we want an A-10"
Enough already, it's getting annoying.

Here is a closeup if you haven't seen it yet. Isn't she a beauty!

Does any one else but me feel that this has gotten to be a personal thing between 21st and the A-10 fans? I'm begining to feel that way. Its like they are saying, 'We can do what we want and while we're at it we are going to make every other thing first. Even if they are more expensive to produce then an A-10!'. I'm going to vote with my wallet. I'm no longer buying every product they make. I'll pick one aircraft and wait for the repaint I want and buy one, no more repaints at all. I'm just one person I know but I've given them over 3000 dollars in the past three years 70 percent of that was for 21st Century products. Oh well you gotta go where you feel your listened to.
I really should take those anger management classes!

**If they make the A-10, people will see that begging has a point, and everyone will endlessly beg for their favorite plane, thats why there will never be an A-10**

I seriously doubt that. Read 21st B-25 article, evidently they built it because fans have been begging for that. Same thing fans did with the Zero and Hellcat and look what happened.
Don't see your point there buddy....

Arn't all requests begging in one way or another? Also isn't it foolish for a company to not make an aircraft for that reason?
"Thanks but no, we don't want you to dump all your cash in our wallets because we feel it is more important that you should learn not to beg. So we won't make your favorite airplane no matter what we might make, its the right thing to do!"
God I'm laughing my a@@ off thinking about that[size]

Don't read it then. Problem solved.
I dunno whether it's the angle, but that A-10 prototype looks a bit....short and chubby. Kinda the the Spitfire and the 109E.

The picture was of a prototype and Roy said once it needed tweaking.

The B-25 is being made , this is something that at one time was never ever going to be done.

And it is. I think TKO is throwing us a curve ball. I am sure that the A-10 is in the works. But you know how 21st works

The B-25 will come out anywere from 6 months to 3 years. When it does come out I am sure that the A-10 is next. Come on guys don't get your roids in an uproar

I think we have the right to be frustrated and show it. After we've been told over and over that it's too big, too costly, etc., this is very frustrating. It's like telling a kid that they can't have a cookie before dinner because it will spoil their dinner and then turning around and giving another kid a cookie in spite of what you just told the kid standing next to you.
Glad to see all the B-25 fans get their "dream" come true. It would be nice if us A-10 fans could see ours come true too.

I second that, ph! I really hope we get to see a Warthog soon! If a B-25 is in the works, then SOMEONE has to step up to the plate for an A-10! Seriously, how many repaints of Bf-109s and FW-190s can you do before getting bored? I have 2 bbi jets flying high cover, so give ma a tankbuster already!
