Best Apache video EVER... by
Jeb Hoge
Imagine an AH-64 Longbow dogfighting with a Lotus.
Imagine no longer.

2/3 of the floor space...

Jeroen Wenting
Indeed they would be jettisoned only if doing so would be critical to either
the mission of the survival of the aircraft.
The situation you mention is one, another is where the pylon itself is
heavily damaged causing a lot of drag which would prevent the aircraft from
reaching home.
Or you might...
