Summary:
The A-10 Thunderbolt II is actively engaged in Operation Epic Fury over the Strait of Hormuz, where it is destroying Revolutionary Guard Corps fast-attack boats, shooting down Shahed-style drones, and striking ground targets. Despite the Air Force's longstanding position that the A-10 has no place on the modern battlefield, the aircraft’s versatility and loitering capability have proven effective in this role. U.S. Central Command has confirmed the A-10's operational success in this theater. The aircraft's performance in this operation is described as superior to that of the F-35, F-15, F-16, B-2, and advanced drones in the U.S. arsenal.

Scripture: Matthew 24:6-7 (NASB 1977)
""And you will be hearing of wars and rumors of wars; see that you are not frightened, for those things must take place, but that is not yet the end. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and in various places there will be famines and earthquakes.""
Commentary:
Jesus described a world where conflict becomes a constant soundtrack, and the Strait of Hormuz fits that pressure-point reality. It’s not abstract. Sailors and crews in that corridor can hear weapons, see drones, and feel the uncertainty first. U.S. airpower lingering overhead to strike boats, drones, and ground targets shows how quickly small platforms can trigger larger responses when trade routes are threatened. This kind of escalation-and-containment cycle matches prophetic patterns of multiplying unrest among nations.
Prophetic Trend:
Strategic chokepoints are becoming flashpoints where fast, asymmetric attacks meet sustained military presence, reinforcing a global pattern of persistent, scalable conflict.

Commentary Despite Air Force claims that the A-10 has no place on the modern battlefield, a claim they have been making for decades, the A-10 is once again using its unmatched versatility and loitering capability to destroy fast-attack watercraft, drones, and enemy positions. And for the role it is performing in Operation Epic Fury, the Warthog is vastly superior to any F-35, F-15, F-16, B-2, or even the most advanced drone in the U.S. arsenal. While somewhat sleek, high-flying stealth fighters such as the maintenance-heavy F-35 dominate the Air Force budget, it is the A-10 Thunderbolt II that the Air Force is being forced to rely on to take the fight to the enemy’s backyard in the Strait of Hormuz. U.S. Central Command has confirmed that A-10s are destroying Revolutionary Guard Corps fast-attack boats, shooting Shahed-style drones out of the sky, and striking ground targets. ......
