Just found a clip that talks about some of the changes that the C upgrade has made to the hog, has odd old clips footage of the A-10 ripping up some tanks and a couple of new I have never seen.

I haven't got any sound and I don't know enough about current active squadrons but there is a point in the clip that behind TSgt Christian Stafford shows an intake cover with 74 AMU (dunno if that helps identify the unit)?

I had watched the clip on my computer at home a month ago (I have been trying to find it since, it was put up again just about a week ago) and from what I remember the base is purely just performing the upgrade and sending the hog's back to their bases.

I was being sarcastic. The video is of Popes jets (23FW/23AMXS/74AMU/75AMU) but the narrator said 75th Fighter Wing. They should have said 23rd Fighter Wing or 75th Fighter Squadron.

Don't you Just Love those \"Reporters\" ? I recognize several of those Tails from the Old \"76TFS\" Days

Reminds me of those \"AFRTS\" clips overseas.

I thought some of it was interesting, I now know that it has the MFD that shows situational awareness that I first knew about playing an old f22 flight sim and then found out that the last model of the AV8 has similar device that has a scrolling map.

Nice to know they are at least keeping the hog fairly up to date, don't know what else the c upgrade does besides the odd pieces of info on here.
