The A-10 Thunderbolt II is an American subsonic attack aircraft manufactured by Fairchild Republic.[1]
Sonic Wings 2[]
Heavy armed but inferior in dodge speed.
—Aero Fighters 2 game manual
Main Weapon: Gatling Shot (ガトリングショッ)
Sub Weapon: Spread (スプレット)
Bomb: Pinpoint Bomb (ピンポイントボム)
Captain Silver and Flint pilot the A-10. It has strong defense and is able to take out enemies quickly even when its Gatling Shot isn't fully powered. The aircraft's speed is not as much of an impediment as the manual makes it out to be; however, its real flaw is the small coverage area of its aptly named Pinpoint Bomb. Its Spread sub weapon explodes when it hits an enemy and causes damage with its blast.
Sonic Wings Special/Sonic Wings Limited/Sonic Wings Special for Android[]
Main Weapon: Large Shot (ラージショット)
Sub Weapon: Cluster Bomb (クラスター爆弾)
Bomb: Paveway Smart Bomb (スマート爆弾 ベイブウェイ)
Charge Shot: 35mm Gatling (35mmガトリング)
Again piloted by Silver and Flint, the A-10 is still quite strong with high defense, and its Large Shot is high-powered even without powerups. The Cluster Bomb sub weapon explodes when hitting a target and produces a number of submunitions which can take out enemies in a wide area.
The Paveway Smart Bomb is a great improvement over the A-10's original Pinpoint Bomb, for it has a devastating effect on a much greater coverage area. The A-10 somersaults in the air to drop the bomb, and is invincible while somersaulting. The 35mm Gatling charge shot has high attack power at a short range.
Sonic Wings Assault[]
The A-10A Thunderbolt II is a flying tank. This fighter jet is relatively slow and not too versatile, but makes up for these faults with thick plates of protective armor.
—Aerofighters Assault game manual
Main Weapon: 30mm Machine Gun (30mm機関砲)
Sub Weapon: Super FAE (スーパーFAE)
Bomb: 4-Shot Rocket (4連射ロケット)
Defense: Chaff (チャフ)
Glenda now pilots the A-10. As before, the aircraft is strong and heavily-armored, but slow and difficult to steer and turn quickly. Its defensive chaff has no offensive power, but the Super FAE vaporization bomb can completely surround even the largest boss.
Sonic Wings Reunion[]
Glenda will again pilot the A-10 Thunderbolt II.
