All good points. Bad tactics in one engagement do not mean attack helicopters
are useless. And for all their hype, UAVs are nowhere near a true replacement.


The Army screwed up Comanche development by under-funding the effort and
dragging it out over 20 years. The aircraft itself performed, but the program
failed. This decision still leaves the Army without a replacement for the
OH-58D.
