A-10 Warthog GAU-8 Nose Gun

This is a 3D-printable replica of the GAU-8 Avenger nose cannon used on the A-10 Warthog. I designed this part for my giant 10-foot foamboard A-10 project, and it worked great as a lightweight scale detail piece mounted in the nose.

The model is designed to be easy to print and durable enough for RC aircraft and large display builds. It has the iconic multi-barrel look without being overly fragile, and can be scaled up or down to fit different-size A-10 projects.
