USMC declares AH-1Z Viper combat ready
"The US Marine Corps has finally cleared
the Bell Helicopter AH-1Z Viper for operations, only a few weeks ahead of a decision to launch full-rate production. Declared "operationally effective and suitable" on 29 September, the AH-1Z programme can close the book on a protracted, four-year operational evaluation (OPEVAL) process delayed by reliability and technical glitches." See: http://www.flightglobal.com/articles...bat-ready.html It's finally here! Will this be the last of the Cobra line? Or will they start over again at AH-1AA, AH-1BB........etc.?
