Time lapse video of a U.S. Air Force A-10 Thunderbolt II aircraft from the Indiana Air National Guard’s 122nd Fighter Wing being painted at the Air National Guard Paint Facility in Sioux City, Iowa. The Blacksnakes of the 122nd Fighter Wing conceptualized the design in order to commemorate 100 years of aviation in the Indiana National Guard.

The paint scheme on the A-10 is a mixture of black and dark grey with colors breaking along standard A-10 paint lines on the wings, engines and fuselage. The nose of the aircraft is complete with the distinctive 122nd FW green eyed snake, complete with fangs, surrounding the aircraft’s 30mm rotary cannon.
