I think these are the aircraft with the cannon firing 30mm depleted uranium shells at a rate of 60 per second or something? I might be mistaken so put me right if I am.
But I guess anything hit with that many shells per second is going to fly apart pretty dramatically and leave the instruments in the cab functioning as you described.

They let you go unharmed in there own country. So does seem gun hoe to me, were they not Conscripts? not as if they have a choice weather they are in the Military or not unlike US.Trucks are stolen tell the watchmen
I do not think it would go down to well telling Saddam they are conscientious objectors

The cannon allown on an A10 can make a mess of ANY tank never mind an unarmed truck, from a side profile the cannon is a long as vw bettle & goes all the way up to the leading edge of the wings, that why the front wheel on an A10 is to one side.
