Sad that a record of air dominance by USAF, USN and Army Aviation is threatened ...

AIM-120 wouldn’t work with the Chaparral transport and launch platform. The original launch system was designed for passive homing missiles; AIM-120 is an active-homing radar guided missile, capable of hitting targets much farther out in range. The launch system would have to be completely redone.
