Were they doing this behind enemy lines or something? The Hog falls over on it’s ass if you remove the gun, and has a titanium tub weighing god knows what to protect the pilot. How is hauling that around the sky worthwhile?

If there is a plane worst suited for this kind of jobs it is the warthog.

All I’ve ever wanted to do is seed a cloud.

The could use a skywarden instead for cheaper.
