The A10 is for my eyes the coolest looking plane of the jet age.
The FM in DCS:A10 is about as spot on as you can get it in a Desktop sim. The sim is approximately the same as the USAFRES bought to do desktop training for their Hawg-pilots, with some systems omitted due to them being classified.

Why the slogan? Dude, have you SEEN an A10? I love the thing bigtime, seriously, but it's butt-ugly

I'd also say that the sim is a good challenge, even though it does leave you with a massive case of brainfire at times (Which buttons do what AAAAAUUUGH!!).

Then again, if you REALLY want brainfire and a challenge, DCS:Black Shark is the way to go. Maybe I'm just an utter n00b that hasn't flown heli's since the good old days of Gunship 2000, but holy hell, it's got an absolutely brutal learning-curve. Really fun once you DO get the hang of it, though.

There are probably some friendly forces to fire at on the ground too.

As it is in all combatsims, and as it is on all battlefields, yes.
