On May 14, 2010, at Nellis AFB, Nevada, Warthog News contributor Bruce Smith from United States had the opportunity to take the following shots of A-10s from the 355th Fighter Wing (ACC), Davis-Monthan AFB, Arizona:

Update June 4, 2010:

As Bruce told me in an e-mail today, all pics were taken during arrival at Nellis. The D-M Hogs were there to participate in a runup for the ME phase of Weapons School. ME is the shortcut for mission employment, it's like final exams for weapons school. They only flew at night, so these shots were the only taken by Bruce.
