A-10C Thunderbolt II
Lockheed Martin · USA
The A-10C upgrade introduced a "Glass Cockpit" with color multi-function displays and a digital stores management system. This allowed the pilot to "slave" the 30mm gun and missiles to a targeting pod, making the aircraft vastly more lethal at night and in bad weather.
