Looking for an A-10 Video
 
Can any Hawg guys post a link for the classic video with Maj Tusk and Lt Hog? You know, the one with actual Warthogs, ala nature documentary.

I have been searching for it for an hour and can't find it; it used to show up almost instantly in any A-10 video search on Youtube.

I finally remembered the title as "Circle the Hogs." Hacker had posted it to Youtube, but it's gone now...any help?

Did you ever find this? I was telling my kids about it - hilarious!

Shoot 'em in the lips!

Awesome find... Thanks!

Great find...the quality was never great, even when this was new...but it is still hilarious.

I can't find the "Warthawgs don't go fast" song, either. This is a self-deprecating song that came out about the same time as the previous video. Here are the lyrics, though:

Hello!
My name is Joe,
I fly Warthogs.
Don't go too fast...

I ain't awed,
By your burners as ya' pass.
I'm a yankin' and bankin',
Killin' commies in their tanks.

I'm lining up on a tank,
What a world of hurt he's in.
He'll be a crispy critter,
I hope he don't check right and extend.

(CHORUS)
"Warthogs don't go fast,
I ain't awed by your burners when ya pass.
SNORT!
I'm a yankin' and bankin',
Killin' commies in their tanks."

High charts, high approaches,
And that 'High Flight' poetry,
I don't need for sendin' Ivan to the infirmary.

(CHORUS)

I gotta tank in my six,
Can't shake him, whatta I do?!?
Speed brakes! Hard turn!
I'll kill him when he overshoots.

(CHORUS)

A no-notice check,
The SEFE sings the same old song.
So he finds a ground cord,
And plugs it in and runs along.

(CHORUS)

Don't need speed,
To make Ivan surrender.
I don't need an airspeed meter,
'Cause I got a calendar.

(CHORUS)

A Warthog joined the Navy,
For a test a while ago.
They put a hook on the front,
And they snagged it from below.

(CHORUS)

Warthogs.
Warthogs.
Warthogs...

(I first saw these around 1985. I'd love to know who actually made these videos.)

MOA? VR/IR Route?
 
While driving along an Interstate in GA (?), I caught a glimpse of an A-10 manoeuvrings at a very low altitude. I honestly thought he was crashing. Very impressive.

Also caught an A-7 scud running at high speed thru the WV mountains.

Great video and song!

I used to have it posted on my YouTube, but it was contested as having contained copyrighted content from "Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom".

So, they took it down.
