The beloved A-10 Warthog has a brand new role: bomb truck

Bombs away!

Photos recently published to the Defense Department’s Defense Visual Information Distribution System and first spotted by our colleagues at The War Zone show an A-10 Thunderbolt II assigned to the 422nd Test and Evaluation Squadron taking flight with 16 GBU-39/B Small Diameter Bomb (SDB) mounted across four separate BRU-61/A bomb racks during one of several test missions that took place between April 19th and 20th at Nellis Air Force Base in Nevada.

The test was intended to evaluate an updated version of Operation Flight Program 11, a major software upgrade that included a patch to allow an A-10 to support two additional SDB racks. While the 40th Flight Test Squadron had flown an A-10 with 16 SDBs before during developmental testing at Eglin Air Force Base in Florida in February 2022, the Nellis test marked the first time the 422nd TES in particular “carried and employed all four bomb racks of GBU-39/Bs on a single jet” using the new software, according to the DVIDS photo caption.

While the A-10 is mostly known for its beastly 30mm GAU-8/A Avenger rotary cannon (and associated ‘BRRRT’ report), the Warthog already has air-to-surface precision strike capabilities in the form of the AGM-65 Maverick missile and the Joint Direct Attack Munition (JDAM) guidance kit. But as our colleagues at The War Zone note, the 250-pound SDB would provide the A-10 with a significantly improved precision strike capability over ranges up to 40 nautical miles away.

The integration of the SDB into the A-10s — initiated in 2018 under the Air Force’s Common Fleet Initiative raft of upgrades for the airframe — will “give the A-10 a four-fold increase in standoff bomb capability and allows the A-10 to provide weapons effects in much [greater] threat environments than before,” as Maj. Matthew Kading, the A-10 Test Director for the 59th Test and Evaluation Squadron, told The War Zone way back in 2020 while detailing the Warthog’s biggest upgrade in decades.

Deploying the A-10 as a bomb-laden precision strike delivery vehicle is a change of pace for an aircraft explicitly designed to provide blistering close air support for friendly ground forces, a design that proved particularly effective during the U.S.-led military campaigns in Iraq and Afghanistan over the last two decades. But with the Pentagon retooling for a possible near-peer conflict with China, Air Force leaders remain convinced the aging airframe would not survive contact with advanced enemy air defenses.

While lawmakers have fought to keep the A-10 flying into the 2030s, keeping the venerable airframe in the fight means finding new mission sets. As A-10C weapons officers Maj. Maurice Grosso argued in Task & Purpose last year, loading up the Warthog with both standoff weapons (relatively long-distance missiles and bombs) and airborne decoys could give the aging aircraft new life in a high-intensity conflict against a sophisticated air defense network.

“The A-10C has up to 10 weapons stations available,” Grosso wrote. “In today’s Air Force, where new fighters have fewer weapons stations in order to prioritize internal carriage and stealth, the A-10’s sheer volume of available weapons stations is a force multiplier.”

Indeed, the Air Force is clearly embracing Grosso’s logic not just with standoff weapons SDB, but with those airborne decoys as well. In December, A-10 pilots from the 74th Fighter Squadron flew from their home at Moody Air Force Base in Georgia to Guam for an integrated strike mission with B-1B Lancer bombers while loaded up with ADM-160 Miniature Air-Launched Decoys (MALD), 300-pound miniature aircraft designed to launch mid-air and duplicate the signature and flight profile of other aircraft to confuse enemy air defenses.

At least one B-1B pilot appreciated the A-10 assist.

“Having a combat-proven platform like the A-10 provide support through their MALD decoys increases the probability that our aircraft and weapons successfully strike their targets,” Maj. Daniel Winningham, a B-1B instructor pilot with the 37th Bomb Squadron, said in a press release about the exercise at the time. “The training opportunities provided by sorties like this are invaluable.”

It’s unclear when A-10s might deploy overseas touting MALDs or SDBs, but one thing is clear from the Warthog’s slow and steady transformation from CAS darling to armored bomb truck: you absolutely can teach an old dog new tricks.

“The A-10 is famous for its 30-millimeter Gatling gun and ability to carry large weapons loads,” as 74th FS squadron commander Lt. Col. Matt Shelly put it in the press release after the MALD exercise. “But we must move beyond the weapons and mission sets that made the A-10 famous in the low-intensity conflicts of the Middle East and accelerate change in this way to be a force multiplier for combatant commanders.”

True story, my father flew the "WARTHOG" out of Ramstein I'm guessing it was 78-79 I was about 10 years old and my dad took me to hangers just to show me around and it's a memory I will never forget I'm sure it was all set up but my father put a mic and headphones on my head and with all his seriou...

I too think it is the sexiest plane ever and we see them flying over Tucson almost every day (for a little while longer.) But the A-10 hasn't been a survivable airframe for decades. Davis-Monthan has a new mission and a big boneyard. It's time to let these venerable aircraft rest in peace.

Why aren't they sending a few of these monsters to Ukraine for their counter-offensive? 6 of these with air support could do a lot of damage and might even blow a hole in the Russian line.

Can Someone explain to me why no one uses

A-10s in Ukraine? When I saw those multi mile

long convoys of Russian Tanks, ETC. standing

ready to be sent out, I thought that this would be the perfect

Weapon to take them all out quickly and with no loss of our lives.

The Ukrainians have been begging for them, but our leaders don't think it's survivable. Between MANPADS, SAMS, and the MiGs, it would be a rough mission.

How to Start a Trucking Business in Canada with Minimal Investment

Starting a trucking business in Canada can be a lucrative endeavor, but for many aspiring entrepreneurs, the challenge is finding a way to enter the industry without significant upfront costs. Luckily, it is possible to start a trucking business in Canada with minimal investment if you plan carefully and use smart strategies. This guide will show you how to get started without breaking the bank.

. Understand the Trucking Industry in Canada

Before diving into how to start a trucking business in Canada with minimal investment, it’s important to understand the industry itself. Canada’s trucking industry plays a vital role in the economy, transporting over 70% of the country’s goods.

However, the initial costs for trucks, fuel, insurance, and licenses can be significant. To minimize these costs, you’ll need to consider options like leasing equipment, opting for part-time work, and focusing on niche markets.

. Choose the Right Trucking Niche

Choosing the right niche can significantly lower your costs when starting your trucking business. Certain sectors of the industry, such as local deliveries, moving services, or specialty freight, may have lower start-up costs compared to long-haul trucking.

Specialty niches like hauling refrigerated goods, livestock, or hazardous materials often pay higher rates, which can make it easier to generate revenue even with minimal investment. Consider niches that don’t require an extensive fleet or specialized equipment to help keep your expenses low.

. Start with a Single Truck

One of the best ways to start a trucking business in Canada with minimal investment is to begin with a single truck. You don’t need to purchase a new or expensive vehicle. Many entrepreneurs choose to buy a used truck or even lease one to avoid the upfront cost.

When choosing a truck, focus on reliability and fuel efficiency, as this will help reduce ongoing costs. Used trucks can be found for reasonable prices and may only require minor upgrades or repairs to get them road-ready.

. Financing and Leasing Options

Purchasing a truck outright is often the largest cost when starting a trucking business. To reduce this financial burden, consider financing or leasing options. Truck leasing allows you to pay a lower monthly fee instead of a large lump sum, freeing up capital for other business needs.

In addition, financing options can help you spread the cost of purchasing a truck over time. Look for government programs and grants aimed at small businesses in Canada, which can provide you with financial support to get started with minimal investment.

. Keep Overhead Costs Low

Another key aspect of how to start a trucking business in Canada with minimal investment is keeping your overhead costs low. Start by operating your business from home, reducing the need for office space or extra staff. This can save you thousands of dollars a year.

To further cut costs, consider handling your own bookkeeping and administrative tasks, at least initially. There are affordable software programs that can help you stay organized without hiring additional personnel.

. Secure Essential Permits and Licenses

Even when starting a trucking business in Canada with minimal investment, you’ll need to secure the necessary permits and licenses to operate legally. Depending on the type of trucking services you offer, you may need:

A commercial driver’s license (CDL)

Motor vehicle insurance

A National Safety Code (NSC) certificate

Operating authority from the Canadian Transportation Agency

These legal requirements are essential for compliance, but costs can be kept to a minimum by focusing on local or regional routes that don’t require expensive international permits.

. Build Relationships and Get Your First Clients

Building a solid client base is crucial to the success of your trucking business. Start by networking with local businesses, freight brokers, and other trucking companies that may require subcontractors. You can also use online platforms like load boards to find jobs.

Focus on providing reliable, affordable services to create word-of-mouth referrals. Establishing a strong reputation will help you secure repeat customers without the need for heavy marketing investments.

. Invest in Technology to Increase Efficiency

Investing in technology can help keep your costs down while improving efficiency. GPS tracking, route optimization software, and electronic logging devices (ELDs) are tools that can save you time and fuel.

Companies like Eldmandate offer affordable ELD solutions that not only ensure compliance with Canadian regulations but also help streamline your operations and reduce unnecessary expenses.

Conclusion

Starting a trucking business in Canada with minimal investment is possible if you take a strategic approach. By choosing the right niche, starting with one truck, exploring financing options, and keeping your overhead low, you can successfully enter the industry without a huge upfront cost. Always remember to comply with legal requirements and invest in technology to improve efficiency.

If you're looking to start a trucking business in Canada with minimal investment, Eldmandate can help you stay compliant with affordable electronic logging devices. These tools will not only save you money but also help you stay competitive in this growing industry.

5 Common Myths About Electronic Logging Devices Debunked

The rise of Electronic Logging Devices (ELDs) has sparked a wave of misinformation across the trucking industry. As regulatory requirements shift, many drivers and fleet owners are left questioning the benefits and functionality of ELDs. This blog aims to debunk five common myths surrounding Electronic Logging Devices, helping you make informed decisions and comply with regulations efficiently.

Myth 1: Electronic Logging Devices Are Too Complicated to Use

One of the most prevalent myths about Electronic Logging Devices is that they are overly complicated and difficult to use. Many drivers fear that the transition from paper logs to digital devices will be overwhelming. However, the reality is that ELDs are designed with user-friendliness in mind. Most devices come with intuitive interfaces and straightforward instructions, making it easy for even the least tech-savvy individuals to adapt. Training and support are also widely available to ensure a smooth transition.

Myth 2: ELDs Invade Privacy and Track Personal Data

A common concern among drivers is that Electronic Logging Devices invade their privacy by constantly tracking their whereabouts and personal information. While it's true that ELDs track vehicle movement and driving hours, they are not designed to invade personal privacy. The data collected is strictly related to compliance with Hours of Service (HOS) regulations and is not used for monitoring personal activities. Additionally, ELDs are subject to strict data protection laws, ensuring that any information gathered is kept secure and confidential.

Myth 3: Electronic Logging Devices Lead to Increased Operational Costs

Another widespread myth is that adopting Electronic Logging Devices will result in higher operational costs for trucking companies. While there is an initial investment in purchasing and installing ELDs, these devices often lead to long-term savings. ELDs help reduce administrative costs by automating record-keeping and minimizing errors in log entries. They also improve fuel efficiency and route planning, which can lower fuel expenses. Furthermore, compliance with ELD regulations can help avoid costly fines and penalties.

Myth 4: ELDs Are Only Beneficial for Large Fleets

Many small fleet owners and independent drivers believe that Electronic Logging Devices are only advantageous for large trucking companies. However, this is far from the truth. ELDs offer significant benefits to fleets of all sizes. For smaller operations, ELDs can streamline record-keeping, reduce paperwork, and improve compliance with HOS regulations. Additionally, ELDs provide valuable data insights that can help small businesses optimize their operations, improve safety, and enhance customer service.

Myth 5: Electronic Logging Devices Are Unreliable and Prone to Malfunctions

There is a common misconception that Electronic Logging Devices are unreliable and frequently experience technical issues. While no technology is completely immune to malfunctions, modern ELDs are designed to be robust and reliable. Reputable ELD providers offer devices with built-in redundancies, ensuring that data is securely stored even if connectivity is temporarily lost. Regular software updates and technical support are also available to address any issues that may arise, minimizing downtime and ensuring compliance.

Electronic Logging Devices play a crucial role in enhancing safety, compliance, and efficiency within the trucking industry. By debunking these common myths about Electronic Logging Devices, it's clear that the benefits far outweigh the concerns. Embracing ELD technology can lead to improved operations, reduced costs, and a safer working environment for drivers.

For fleet owners and drivers looking to stay competitive and compliant, it's essential to choose a reliable ELD provider. At eldmandate, we are committed to providing high-quality Electronic Logging Devices that meet industry standards and deliver exceptional performance. Trust eldmandate for all your ELD needs, and take the first step toward a safer, more efficient future.

BuyParts Online Shares 5 Ways to Maximize Your Truck's Fuel Efficiency

Fuel efficiency is critical in the trucking industry, directly impacting operating costs and environmental footprint. 

At BuyParts Online, where positive reviews speak to the quality and reliability of our offerings, maximizing your truck’s fuel efficiency is more important than ever. 

With rising fuel prices, here are five effective strategies to help you get the most out of every gallon of fuel.

1. Maintain Proper Tire Pressure

One simplest yet most effective way to improve your truck’s fuel efficiency is by maintaining proper tire pressure. 

Under-inflated tires create more rolling resistance, so your truck's engine must work harder to keep the vehicle moving. 

Regularly check and maintain your tires at the manufacturer's recommended pressure levels. This small habit can lead to significant savings over time, reducing fuel consumption by up to 3%.

2. Reduce Excess Weight

Carrying excess weight in your truck not only wears down the engine faster but also significantly reduces fuel efficiency. 

Conduct regular inspections to identify and remove unnecessary items or cargo. 

For example, removing just 100 pounds can improve fuel economy by approximately 1%. Additionally, consider lightweight materials for truck components and trailers to further reduce overall weight.

3. Optimize Route Planning

Strategic route planning is essential for minimizing fuel consumption. 

Utilize GPS and route optimization software to find the most efficient paths that avoid heavy traffic, construction zones, and hilly terrains. 

By reducing idle time and avoiding unnecessary detours, you can minimize the amount of fuel wasted in traffic jams and stop-and-go driving conditions.

4. Implement Regular Maintenance

Regular maintenance is crucial for keeping your truck running efficiently. 

A well-maintained engine burns fuel more efficiently, while clogged air filters, dirty oil, and worn-out spark plugs can all contribute to increased fuel consumption. 

Schedule routine check-ups to ensure your truck is in top condition. 

Pay attention to engine tuning, oil changes, and the replacement of air filters to keep your truck operating at peak performance.

5. Adopt Fuel-Saving Driving Techniques

Driver behavior plays a significant role in fuel efficiency. 

Encourage drivers to adopt fuel-saving techniques such as maintaining a steady speed, using cruise control when appropriate, and avoiding rapid acceleration and hard braking. 

Educating drivers on the benefits of smooth driving can result in up to 30% fuel savings. 

Additionally, reducing idle time by turning off the engine during long stops can further enhance fuel efficiency.

Conclusion

Maximizing your truck's fuel efficiency is not only beneficial for your bottom line but also contributes to a more sustainable and environmentally friendly operation. 

By maintaining proper tire pressure, reducing excess weight, optimizing routes, conducting regular maintenance, and adopting fuel-saving driving techniques, you can significantly improve your truck's fuel economy. 

Implementing these strategies will ensure that you’re getting the most out of every drop of fuel, ultimately leading to long-term savings and a more efficient fleet.

In Shenzhen, there are over 6,000 freight forwarders in the shipping business. How do you choose a reliable international shipping company?

In Shenzhen, there are over 6,000 freight forwarders in the shipping business. How do you choose a reliable international shipping company?

In Shenzhen, the number of freight forwarding companies, both large and small, is estimated to be over 60,000. There are small freight forwarders in urban villages with only a few people, as well as large, powerful freight forwarders. However, they all advertise themselves as capable international shipping companies, making it overwhelming to choose a reliable one.

Having worked in international freight forwarding for 26 years, here are some insights worth considering:

First, look at the registration years of the international shipping company. The longer they have been in business, the stronger their ability to withstand risks. Most freight forwarding companies can only operate for three to four years before closing down, and only a few can survive. Hongmingda international Shipping Company does not rent office space but owns an 1800 square meter Grade A office in a commercial area of Shenzhen. You can video call us anytime to see our office. We have our own logistics fleet, unlike small urban village freight forwarders, and are one of the few in the industry. We manage inventory with our self-developed ERP software and share the interface and data with our clients, which is rare domestically.

Second, look at the number of employees. Most small freight forwarders in urban villages are shell companies with just a few people. When clients ask about their size, they often evade the question. I remember an old Hong Kong client, Manager Zhu, who had worked with us on a few small shipments. This time, he had a larger shipment and was not very familiar with us. While small shipments might not require much consideration, larger shipments necessitate a thorough examination of the international shipping company's capabilities. We have been in the international freight forwarding business in Shenzhen for over 20 years and have more than 50 employees, indicating our strength as an international shipping company. After an on-site visit and communication, Manager Zhu realized our actual scale and remarked, "I thought you were also a small urban village freight forwarder, but I didn't expect you to be this big. With such an international shipping company, why should I worry?"

Third, check which well-known companies the international shipping company collaborates with. Big companies have very strict procedures for selecting freight forwarders, including on-site inspections and documentation, which are not falsified. Therefore, international shipping companies that have worked with big companies are usually strong and sizable. Just like when we select partners, we use whether the other party has worked with big companies as a criterion. For example, Walmart, Costco, Huawei, and nearly 20 other industry giants and over 100 well-known enterprises have been using Hongmingda international Shipping Company for over 10 years. For more than 20 years, Hongmingda Logistics has been punctual, with an on-time rate of 99%, barring natural disasters.

Hongmingda Logistics has its own booking system, trucks, container trailers, and warehousing. Our services include cargo consolidation, collection and transportation, customs clearance, insurance, settlement, and other integrated services. After 26 years of development, Hongmingda Logistics has become one of the few international shipping companies. We are a non-vessel operating common carrier (NV007258) approved by the Ministry of Transport of China, a senior member of the World Cargo Alliance (WCA) (87909), and have joined logistics associations such as WIFFA and JCTRANS since 2006. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is difficult to find another company like ours domestically.

Within the company, we have established the "Sunny Business School" to train employees and continuously improve their business skills. We all have the impression that companies capable of setting up internal academies are high-end, and we are doing the same, which speaks volumes.

As a 26-year-old international shipping company, we care more about our clients' needs than they do. With an on-time rate of 99%, barring natural disasters, if you have any international shipping needs, please contact us. at jerry@swwlogistics.com.cn. We are confident that you will be satisfied.

Understanding Trucking Compliance: A Key to Running a Successful Trucking Business

In the ever-evolving trucking industry, trucking compliance is more important than ever. From small owner-operators to large fleets, ensuring your business adheres to the necessary regulations is crucial for avoiding costly fines and maintaining a good safety record. In this blog, we’ll dive into the key aspects of trucking compliance and explain why it’s essential for a successful trucking operation.

What is Trucking Compliance?

Trucking compliance refers to the adherence of trucking companies to regulations set by federal, state, and local authorities. These rules are primarily designed to ensure the safety of drivers, vehicles, and the public on the road. In the United States, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) is the main body that oversees compliance requirements, including driver hours of service (HOS), vehicle maintenance, and more.

Companies that fail to comply with these regulations can face penalties such as fines, suspension of operations, or even legal action. Therefore, maintaining compliance is not only about avoiding penalties but also about improving safety and efficiency.

Why is Trucking Compliance Important?

. Avoid Fines and Penalties Fines for non-compliance can be significant, especially if violations are frequent. For instance, violations of HOS rules can lead to hefty fines, while poor vehicle maintenance records can result in vehicles being taken off the road. By following the guidelines of trucking compliance, businesses can avoid these unnecessary expenses.

. Safety of Drivers and the Public Regulations such as those regarding HOS exist to protect drivers from fatigue, a leading cause of accidents. Similarly, regular vehicle maintenance ensures that trucks are roadworthy, reducing the likelihood of accidents due to mechanical failure. Following trucking compliance rules helps to safeguard your drivers and others on the road.

. Maintain a Positive Reputation A company that consistently complies with trucking regulations will enjoy a better reputation with clients and regulators. This can lead to more business opportunities and better relationships with stakeholders. Non-compliance, on the other hand, can damage a company’s reputation and lead to lost business.

Key Areas of Trucking Compliance

Understanding the core aspects of trucking compliance is crucial for ensuring your business is operating within the law. Here are some of the key areas you need to focus on:

. Hours of Service (HOS)

Drivers are required to adhere to strict HOS regulations that dictate how long they can be on the road before taking a break. These rules are in place to prevent driver fatigue and ensure that everyone on the road stays safe. Ensuring compliance with these regulations involves using electronic logging devices (ELDs) that automatically record driving hours and ensure drivers take the necessary breaks.

. Vehicle Maintenance

Ensuring that your trucks are well-maintained is a critical part of trucking compliance. Regular vehicle inspections, repairs, and maintenance not only keep your trucks on the road but also prevent accidents caused by mechanical failure. Make sure your fleet undergoes periodic inspections and that all maintenance is documented.

. Driver Qualification

Drivers need to meet certain qualifications to operate commercial vehicles, including holding a valid commercial driver’s license (CDL) and passing regular medical exams. Trucking compliance also involves ensuring that your drivers undergo ongoing training to stay updated on safety regulations and industry standards.

. Record Keeping

Accurate record keeping is vital for proving compliance with all trucking regulations. Whether it’s HOS logs, vehicle maintenance records, or driver qualification files, all documentation must be maintained and accessible in the event of an audit. Many companies rely on fleet management software to keep track of these records and ensure that they’re compliant.

Common Trucking Compliance Challenges

Despite the importance of trucking compliance, many businesses face challenges in maintaining it. Some of the common obstacles include:

Complex Regulations: Navigating the myriad of federal, state, and local regulations can be overwhelming, especially for smaller businesses without a dedicated compliance department.

Keeping Up with Changes: Trucking regulations are constantly evolving, and it can be difficult to stay on top of the latest rules and requirements.

Driver Non-Compliance: Some drivers may intentionally or unintentionally violate HOS rules or neglect vehicle maintenance. It’s crucial to train drivers thoroughly and monitor their compliance.

Staying on Top of Trucking Compliance

In today’s highly regulated trucking industry, trucking compliance is not something you can afford to overlook. By ensuring that your company follows all the necessary regulations, you can avoid costly fines, improve safety, and build a strong reputation. Whether it’s adhering to HOS regulations, maintaining your vehicles, or keeping accurate records, compliance should be a top priority for your business.
