QUOTE(epul @ Mar 9 2011, 10:48 AM) SAM doesnt make the helos and plane look obsolete flying low and fast at night on thick jungle won't be dangerous with current helicopter system..but the environment itself make attack helos etc to be in difficult when they want to attack the enemy in the thick jungle dont compare arab-desert environemnt only got 1-3 trees and sand dune to hide now it's not vietnam era anymore |

QUOTE(heavyduty @ Mar 9 2011, 10:48 AM) there were 24 apaches during the kosovo war,none of them were deployed because the fear of serbian SAMs during the first gulf war 1991, apaches are chosen to attack and destroy the iraqi EARLY WARNING RADAR INSTALLATION to create a safe corridor for attacking allied aircraft. The apaches are more useful to this important mission than high end attack aircraft like the F-15E and even the F-117A stealth. |

QUOTE(keown83 @ Mar 9 2011, 10:57 AM) havent saw any real jungle war recently...so anybody can speculate about almost anything...remember before in Iraq when US army so confident they thought can marched by just using a large group of apaches..later then they knew that their decision was a big mistake...attack heli cant be deployed solely by themselves...they need backup from other mechanized divisions...& for an oppressor to deploy a mechanized division effectively in a our jungle, I would say its gonna be tough things to do true an army need combined arms to fight effectively...but don't understand why guys keep saying fighting in jungle, only a losing army hide and fight in jungle.. even the vietnamese NVA army fight the conventional way during the closing stages of the war to conquer the mekong delta areas btw is there any thick jungle left that big enough to hide a whole army except taman negara |

QUOTE(panglimanadzri @ Mar 9 2011, 12:11 PM) i didnt say an atomic bomb, rather an atom-like bomb in term of its distruction power. for example a couple of container full load with TNT using some mechanical device to detonate 500 meters above the ground to maximize the effect of the blast, i think it is sufficient to wipe out entire singapore.. hahahaha. this will be like iraq attacking kuwait..US will come invade.. |

QUOTE(keown83 @ Mar 9 2011, 12:57 PM) 1st, the chopper needs to locate officer who operate the manpads...& as i know, jungle clay very effective in hiding human's body heat may i know how the manpads guy locate the apache first, and how to shoot a missile thru a thick jungle& no, the manpads operator wont come clean, & they wont do sitting duck and a apache pilot won't bother for a manpads guy, better look a more juicy targets like a tank, apc or radar guided SAMs |
