Neither can the A-10 and that did the job OK.
The A-10 is capable of defending itself with the gun and AIM-9, the A-6 while it could also carry the AIM-9, their crews only dreamed they could manuever as well as the Hog. The A-10 is also a product of a timeframe when dual role wasn't as emphasized as it is 1980s and beyond.
The thought of not a pound for air to ground is largely history.
