The invasion stripes look amazing, I think they should just paint them all like that.

I’m partial to the standard Euro green from the good old Cold War days (let’s hope we don’t see that again any time soon), but I’d love to see an A-10 painted in the WWI Albatros scheme. That would be awesome. But maybe without the Iron Crosses.

They all look so new in those shots - not old and beat to sh** from being used for the last 20 years...

I do like the traditional #4, but the arctic camo is super cool too.

I recall seeing a closeup photo of an A-10's GAU-8, and over the muzzle was written “If you can read this - I MISSED”

For me, it’s a toss-up between the Black Lightning and the 107th Sq. Centennial liveries.

Personally, I would love to see this livery in real life:
