Right, first Apache, the Longbow varients.

And years from now, Commanche, but, for the Corps, its the AH1 Z I Belive.

Well thats still an open topic for debate, Commanche wasn't exacting providing enough of anything to prove better than the Apache.

I suppose the Commanche may or may not enter true service, well, not at any time soon at least.

Like the new automated Artillery.

They may pull it out at the last minute, I have no Idea what they will ask for in a new Gunship of the future.

I do know, it wont be anti tank, like what they wanted in the pre 90s era, from threat of mass Soviet tank attacks on Europe.


Maybe, they may design something along the lines of anti terror operations. But, what kind of requirements of are those??...

Not unless they revive the program. The Army cancelled (suspended?) the program back in 2004.
