For context, the A-10 is a jet they had since 1977 and are still using because they have nothing newer that would be remotely capable of replacing it. Though to be fair, it's meant to fly low and hit hard close to the ground army on the front line (which makes me curious as to what the heck it was doing there without a ground force for it to support) so its role makes it inherently more likely to be hit than other jets.
