#1 HMMMMM, HMMM, gotta wonder where's the UH-60 BLACKHAWK in all this, as the SUPPOSED-TO-BE-POST-HUEY BLACKHAWK is suppos to be GUNSHIP-CAPABLE.

FEW-TO-ZERO "BLACKHAWK" GUNSHIP ROLES = OPERATIONAL "RUST" = US CASUALTIES.

DA NEWBIE HELOS [including OSPREY] should be in the forefront of Post-COLD WAR, now GWOT, AT ATR/ATER Gunship Combat Ops, NOT THE WILY GEEZERY "OLD VENERABLE/RELIABLE(S)" FROM THE VIETNAM ERA.
