A direct hit on a person is fatal, and messy

12 seconds to go 3000 meters? It could fall faster than that.

AH-64s normally carry 1,200 rounds...at $100/round

I'd love to take off with $120,000 of ammo aboard.

I kind of hate to see them spend $100 per round to kill a few jihadis, but if brings more of our guys home alive and in one piece, I’m all for it.

I am reading a great book by author Ed Macy, retired British Apache Helicopter pilot as he talks about his time in Afghanistan.
