Have you lot heard about the effort to convert the A-10 into a fire-fighting platform? It was being run by a company in California, though they seem to have abandoned it for the moment, largely due to the lack of support from the Government.

Yes... they bring that idea up, every time the USAF announce the 'Hog's retirement.
Of course, they seem to announce THAT every other year, until someone realizes there is no viable replacement.

Didn't stop the Navy from retiring the Tomcat.
