Fairchild-Republic A-10C Thunderbolt II The Thunderbolt II or Warthog, or simply "The Hog," is a highly respected attack aircraft of the US Air Force. It's nicknamed the "Tanks Killer" due to its exceptional capabilities. After over 40 years in service, the US still hasn't found an efficient substitute for this remarkable warplane. Model: A scale model of 1/100 was printed using a nozzle size of 0.4mm and layer thickness of 0.12mm. The print job was completed on an Ender3 with slicing settings optimized by PrusaSlicer 2.0, as shown in the image. To achieve more detail in critical areas like intakes and exhausts, I decided to split the model into two parts. This approach allowed for a seamless glue joint that's barely noticeable once painted. The Pave Penny Pod is also printable separately; if you'd like to add it, please refer to the images in the folder for proper positioning.
