A10 cannot survive without air superiority. It makes sense to supply more fighters to attrit the enemy air defences forced to engage the A10's.
The A10 won't survive alone.
No doubt the US are looking closely at how well the Ukr Su-25s are faring, also the state of Rus air defences now that HIMARS is in action. From the sounds of it Russian fighters have been keeping away from the front lines, so perhaps this threat can be discounted?
