Yesterday, 52nd Fighter Wing Public Affairs released a photo news A-10s depart for US, Romania air tactics training, including three pictures. Since yesterday evening I tried to download the associated pictures, but without success. It seems to me like USAF has a general problem to display latest photos on their public websites. But by trying Google again and again for related photos of this breaking news, this evening I got at first the following photo via USAFE's website:
7/10/2012 - SPANGDAHLEM AIR BASE, Germany – A-10 Thunderbolt II aircraft from the 81st Fighter Squadron wait on Ramp 4 here July 5 before leaving for Exercise Dacian Thunder July 6. The 81st FS, along with members of the Romanian air force, are working together during the exercise to practice close-air-support and combat search and rescue techniques to build partnerships while mutually improving their capabilities.

Note: Pictured from left are A-10Cs 81-0985, 81-0980, 81-0976, 81-0981, 80-0275, 82-0647.

And here are the remaining two pictures, including working hot links to all three hi-res versions!
