The 25th Fighter Squadron (25 FS) is part of the 51st Fighter Wing at Osan Air Base, South Korea. It operates the A-10 Thunderbolt II aircraft conducting close air support missions.The 25th Fighter Squadron uses A/OA-10 Thunderbolt IIs to conduct day and night flying operations on air strike control, close air support, interdiction, and combat search and rescue missions.

In April 2000 Osan's A-10 pilots and Marine helicopter crews teamed up to hone their tactics, techniques and weapons-delivery procedures over Republic of Korea bombing ranges. Pilots from the 25th Fighter Squadron and the Marine Light Attack Helicopter Squadron 369 "Gunfighters," Camp Pendleton, Calif., flew together in Joint Air Attack Team training, which coordinated attacks on one target array by fixed- and rotary-wing aircraft. The training consisted of air-to-ground attack scenarios on enemy targets. The helicopters shot precision guided missiles and the A-10s shot their 30 mm cannons and dropped bombs on those targets. Generally both aircraft attacked within a very short time period so that all the munitions impacted around the same time. The good thing about this type of attack profile is it puts the enemy soldier in a dilemma - if he defends himself against the jets then he gets exposed to fire from the helicopters, and if he defends against the helicopters he opens himself up against the jets. This joint training allows 25th FS members to work together with non-Air Force flying units they would probably be teamed with, and work closely with, during air operations on the Korean peninsula.
