    I learned the other day that if a true WWIII scenario broke out with too many fronts to cover with CAS fighters that the current plan is to modify crop dusters to carry armaments. They even have an active duty variant called the AT-820U that special forces currently use for CAS on the DL. These things are stupid easy maintenance and can takeoff and land from a mostly flat meadow

      The Sky Warden holds a special place in my heart. In a world of high-tech high-dollar everything, I love that a simple crop duster won a bid.
