We establish a structure theorem for the family of Ammann A2 tilings of the plane. Using that theorem we show that every Ammann A2 tiling is self-similar in the sense of Solomyak (Discret Comput Geom 20:265–279, 1998). By the same techniques we show that Ammann A2 tilings are not robust in the sense of Durand et al. (J Comput Syst Sci 78(3):731–764, 2012).
