Facelift

SPANGDAHLEM AIR BASE, Germany -- A gutted A-10 Thunderbolt II is converted from the A to C model Aug. 27 at S.A.B.C.A. The entire 81st Fighter Squadron fleet is undergoing the conversion, which enables the pilot to deliver precision-guided munitions, enhances digital communications with more air and ground forces, and moves several switches to the throttle and stick so that the pilot limits heads down time enabling him/her to focus outside of the cockpit directly into the battlespace.
