An A-10 Thunderbolt II, flies by the tower as it prepares for the firing of the 30 mm gun, as part of the 2006 Hawgsmoke competition, Thursday, March 23, 2006, at the Barry-Goldwater Range, Gila Bend Air Force Auxiliary Field.  There are four parts of the competition. Each team has four members in which they have 100 bullets each to use toward the target. This year's competition coincides with the 30th anniversary of the Warthog.  Twenty squadrons from around the world come together to gain the honor of the "best of the best" in ground attack and target destruction.
