Arkansas Hogs caught at Nellis during GREEN FLAG - West 10-01

At Nellis AFB, Nevada, Warthog News contributor Bruce Smith from United States took some interesting shots of A-10s from the 184th Fighter Squadron, 188th Fighter Wing, Fort Smith, Arkansas, participating in GREEN FLAG - West 10-01. Special thanks to Bruce for his permission to post his shots exclusively on my blog.

Covered are:
A-10C 78-0613 (ex 118th FS, 103rd FW, Connecticut ANG)
A-10C 78-0621 (ex 118th FS, 103rd FW, Connecticut ANG)
A-10C 78-0626 (ex 131st FS, 104th FW, Massachusetts ANG)
A-10C 78-0638 (ex 118th FS, 103rd FW, Connecticut ANG)
A-10C 78-0639 (ex 118th FS, 103rd FW, Connecticut ANG)
A-10C 78-0642 (ex 131st FS, 104th FW, Massachusetts ANG)
A-10C 78-0646 (ex 118th FS, 103rd FW, Connecticut ANG)
A-10C 78-0649 (ex 131st FS, 104th FW, Massachusetts ANG)
A-10C 78-0696 (ex 131st FS, 104th FW, Massachusetts ANG)
A-10C 79-0129

Please Note: Because AN/AAQ-28 LITENING AT targeting pod is visible on station 10, these aircraft must be A-10Cs. The A-10C has the ability to carry this pod also on stations 2/10, thus once again making available stations 3/9 for the AGM-65 Maverick. This post will further updated by loadout interpretations.
