'A-10A Warthog 78-0657 of the 354th Fighter Squadron, 355th Fighter Wing, Bagram AB, Afghanistan, January 2006 - US MODERN JET (1:72)

The first unit to receive the A-10 in March 1976, the 355th W recently celebrated three decades of uninterrupted service with the jet. Although missing out on Operation Desert Storm and Iraqi Freedom I, the wing recently sent to 354th FS into combat from Bagram AB in support of Coalition forces fighting the Taliban in Afghanistan as art of Operation Enduring Freedom. The squadrons jets flew daily operations in-theater from late 2005 through February 2006. Aside from short spells in storage in then nearby Aerospace Maintenance & Regeneration Center, this particular aircraft has served exclusively with the 355th since it was delivered to the USAF in 1979.'
