The year is 2055, more than thirty years after the events of Zero Hour, Earth suffers a catastrophic collision with meteorites. The world is thrown into turmoil as large swathes of land are annihilated. Four factions, the ADF (Asian Democratic Federation), WEA (West European Alliance), WLF (World Liberation Front), and AC (American Confederacy) are at war for control of the remaining already harder to find resources as well as the preservation of their nations and geopolitical interests. Welcome to Deep Impact.
The venerable A-10 Warthog served American forces well into the third Persian Gulf war, but with the forming of the greater American Confederacy and the threat of war imminent, an update to the ancient Close Air Support platform was needed. This came in the form of the A60mk3 "Thunderbolt 3", or "God's Fist" as troops have come to call it. Designed to be attached to a unit at the company level, this new CAS plane can be deployed by a wise general to turn the tide of a battle. Its heavy autocannons fire the same 25mm shells as its older brother, but these new guns, engineered for high power by Armistice Corporation specifically for the AC, produce a rate of fire that almost triples that of the old design- an extremely impressive feat considering the high speed of the original weapons. Add to this its payload of missiles and bombs, and the hardy Thunderbolt is a force to be reckoned with once more.
looks nice.
"And I jizzed in my pants..."
see the a-60 n i **** in ma pants :P
extreme work guys ;)
lol
Dont tell ur friends or I'll say ur a ****
Im very sensitive & u touched my butt
Jizzed in mah pants
Now Ill go home change my pants
She said cash or credit
Jizzed in my pants
The Thunderbolt has always been my favorite aircraft, you guys did it justice!
BTW; Why 25mm for the A60 when the A10 had the 30mm avenger cannon?
Due to the increased rate of fire, more ammunition was needed for extended strafing runs. This prompted the shift to 25mm shells with a new explosive primer inside a DU casing, which are ultimately more dangerous, but in a smaller round, so more can be stored aboard the plane. This also minimizes the danger of shells "cooking off" if the plane catches fire, due to the new, more stable, explosive.
yeah... but your description says, " Its heavy autocannons fire the same 25mm shells as its older brother..." maybe you should change it.
Yes. That was supposed to be fixed *cough*. I was a little... stressed in the writing, and I apologize. That should be sorted out quickly :p.

What a surprise...
Volen, you can criticize us all you want, but the fact that you're a good for nothing arsehole who spends far too much time sucking up to ROTR and quite clearly has very little of a real life won't be changed by you're complaining.
(buried)
You think I cant do anything? Could YOU make even a simple model of tank? :)
Can you? All you do is come onto these forums and continuously complain about how everyone is stealing your designs, or that the Mod Team is abusing your concepts, or some other sort of shenanigans. This Vendetta you're holding against the mod team is only making you look bad.
Go away, seriously. No one cares. You're like the little kid across the street no one wants to play with because he bitches all the time. Seriously man.
Yes, I can do a models, ask McBob/Akatosh and you will know. :)
And? What about I WANT to look bad, hmm? :) Oh, and I dont crititse a mod, I critise Swimmer for that everything what he do, dont do right :)
Volen seriously get a life, I mean even Darkieus who doesnt even know you told you where to go.
Yup. Perhaps it wouldn't be excellent, but modelling isn't my field. And I don't understand how that says anything in response to what I said.
epic face.
excellent model.i think this is ur best model.

They should use this instead of the A-10 in the new terminator movie
agreed
You know what annoyed me in that film? How they wasted those a10's they shouldave ripped those robots a new *******, instead they just crashed them :P
Lol
Agreed they could have owned everything with those A10's
Nice, JDAM bombs are on the hardpoints. The sidewinders look good too, better than the Mavericks, even if they're kinda unfitting.
is it still ugly but well hung?? lol
Rofl...
-Legion
OMG...
WOW!
damn this is sweet
frickin sweet, man...
please tell me that this is a buildable aircraft and not just a generals power delivery boy *sigh*
i've always hated it when a perfectly good model and concept was wasted on a generals power.
It is a generals power, I'm afraid. But don't worry, the AC has some real airpower as well- you'll like that when you see it ;). And this one will be quite a bit of fun, buildable or not.
"Sweet"???
Are you a fool? This is DEADLY!!! =P
Sweet can be deadly. and I really loved the CWC mod, with buildable A-10s and SU-25's. WIN!!!!
are those...
actually 2!? 25mm cannon under the nose.
Haha man thats going to be painful.
excelent!!but we can control it like a normal F22 or it's non-playable like the A-10?
A10 will always be my favorite plane but this may be even better.
Just out of curiosity-
What will happen if you fit 2 88mm recoilless cannons on the A-60?
I mean, replace the bombs and missile w/ the cannons.
always love this plane, i mean what it based on. the alternation is good of course. i remember seeing it in T4, it gave a more realistic and again retro feel to the film.
Funny, a company named "Armistice" is designing military hardware lol, thats awesome ;)
looks almost exactly like the Attack plane in storm of war demo video minus the 2 gattling guns on the top side of the wings
