The amount of silly garbage in this thread is astounding. I thought you HN folks were supposed to be smart. Anyone here actually fly A-10s? Or been on the ground and had one support you?

No, the plane does not slow down when you shoot the gun.

Source: I have almost 3000 hours in this plane. Flew today, actually.

As opposed to speak authoritatively on a topic with ZERO experience beyond a Wiki page?

This thread got cross-linked to some forums where ACTUAL COMBAT VETS frequent. You'd be wise to ask your questions of them instead of talking out of your ass.
