Those rounds are also explosive. They detonate on impact for maximum effect. The A-10 warthog is a primarily air to ground fighter so having a huge cannon built right into the nose is a huge advantage. It's super long wings also allow it to hold a crap load of bombs and missles, as well as fly slow and low.
I don't see why not. The wings are huge so I guess it's possible. And almost any aircraft can survive with only one engine out of 2 as long as the pilot is skilled enough
This is ISIS clever way to commit suicide. "Lets mess with the Americans. Once we do, chickening out wont be a problem AND they can do it in the dark when we're not looking."
