VF-1A-10 Thunderbolt III

Vector of defenses suppression and armor destruction, the VF-1A-10 is the worthy successor of the A-10 thunderbolt II used at the end of the twentieth century.

Its gatlings cannons integrated into the Super Pack nacelles give it a devastating firepower on the Regults and other low-armored Zentradi gear.
