Dear Member,
In other words it is laser-homing. Also another advantage of using the 2.75 inch rocket is that the attack helicopter can give fire support closer to the friendlies (ie the Hellfire had one hell've big warhead). But I hope somehow the cost can be kept a lot lower. That will be the kicker.
