    A Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II (Warthog) attack aircraft is parked on a concrete flight line apron, painted in olive drab camouflage with a distinctive white nose cone. The aircraft bears the tail code '8N' and a USAF roundel on its fuselage, along with crew name placards near the cockpit. The setting appears to be an airshow or static display at a military airfield.

    A U.S. Air Force A-10 Thunderbolt II from the Idaho Air National Guard’s 124th Fighter Wing is painted with a heritage WWII paint scheme at the Air National Guard paint facility in Sioux City, Iowa. The paint scheme is designed to replicate the look of the original P-47 Thunderbolt as it appeared during the 2nd World War. The 124th Fighter Wing conceived the idea in order to commemorate the unit’s 75th anniversary and lineage to their predecessor, the 405th Fighter Squadron.
