What would be the previous war to an A-10? If that's not it, hmmm.... he said "engines", so that rules out most WWII fighters, but not all. Doesn't say if jet or piston engine...... Extra armor, could imply attack aircraft, but could it be a bomber instead?
He doesn't say what country,so.....until we get more clues,if it's not the A-10, I'm gonna go with the B-25.
