You don´t conduct long range assault every days. I am pretty sure that a coordinated package departing from different locations can do the trick.
For the amphib equation., F-35 are already there.
For the US Army. A-10 can fly from nearly everywhere flat and paved. The Mohawk before did its fair share honorably.
The A-10 is not designed for rough-field operations. It can fly from highways in a pinch, but that was not the design brief. Mohawk was an entirely different class of aircraft.
Seems they can do it fine:
Yes - paved road = highway.
Bulldozed dirt runway = "rough-field".
Is the USAF or USMC going to fly in the asphalt & roller-vehicles to pave the bulldozed dirt in that "improvised-airfield near the front line" so the A-10 can use it?
