An F-35 pilot gets more work done in a mission than my whole Department in a month

Because fighter jocks complained about the "A" in "F/A-18."

Same reason we don't see "heavy" tanks any more. Technology has advanced to the point where a mbt is faster than the old medium tanks, better armored than heavy tanks, with better guns than tank destroyers.

Modern Attack and Fighter missions are about the ordinance the aircraft carries and now the form factor of the ordinance has advanced to the point that basically any fighter can carry advanced AGM without sacrificing performance when it is loaded out with air-to-air missions in mind, thus attack roles are now available to fighters with just a change of the missile they carry. This is good because you can have more economy of scale by just operating one airframe instead of 2

The F-35 can be called a E/F/A aircraft. But they didnโ€™tโ€ฆ

The distinction is only meaningful when the mission profiles demand a significant difference in airframes and loadout.

In WW2, a wildcat and a dauntless wouldnโ€™t be best used in switched roles, but today, ordnance and avionics change the mission profile, so any airframe that can carry both can do the mission. And the aircraft can be designed for speed, range and agility more independently.

Now explain the difference between a fighter and an interceptor.

I've always called the F-100 "the first superfighter" because it could do both fairly well. After the F-100 we started splitting off again, the F-104 was a fighter and the F-105 was a striker.

F15 and itโ€™s decedent variants are both, and very good at their jobs of being able to attack ground targets with a ton of munitions, as well as defend its self against threats.

The A10 got a life extension because it can run the show for and do it on a slim budget

The real reason why attack aircraft are mostly obsolete is technological progress. Bette airframes, power plants, avionics and weapons allowed the creation of the multi role fighter which could execute most combat tasks well.

Good video. I love the channel. Do you think an F-35 can actually do an attack role as good as a A-10?

We don't have attack aircrafts because UFO's found them offensive ๐Ÿคซ๐ŸŒ๐Ÿ˜‚

You forgot about fighter interceptors, like thr F104 Starfighter, whose stubby wings had such a sharp leading edge, they needed felt covers on the ground. And the heavily modified core of the F104 became...The U2!

The difference used to be much more obvious in the old days, before rockets and guidance, when everything was a dumb bomb or a hunk of flying lead. The only "targeting" was done by pointing the whole plane at the target.

You had to get up close and personal to shoot down an enemy plane, cruise low, slow, and steady to drop a torpedo into the water, or dive at a near vertical drop to aim your bomb. These all made for very obviously different flight requirements. Today, nearly everything is a rocket-powered guided munition, so the differences aren't as obvious.

Soon we'll see bombers like the B-21 become fighter-bomber-attack aircraft. The USAF is looking into plans to integrate the future AIM 260 JATM missile on it, guided by f35s. The B-21 will then be able to fire missiles, do heavy bombing, and provide close air support, like the f35 but even slower, carry more mutations and heavy bombing capability.
