I'm not sure that's even an option anymore Ken - USAF rules out international A-10 sales - 7/24/2015 - Flight Global
Excellent point. But Congress has stymied USAF's attempts to retire the A-10 and maybe Congress will flex their muscles again to force USAF to sell the A-10s to someone. Boeing has some clout with Congress and may decide to pressure Congress to allow sale of the A-10. But that likely won't happen until the A-10s are actually retired and actually in the boneyard. Looks like we'll have to wait and see.
