It would if you were an Apache pilot, and the alternative was crashing and burning after taking hits. Think of the B-17s in WW2 flying back to England on one engine, half a wing gone, and the tail shot off. Being able to fly after being shot up is a VERY GOOD THING.

I didn't say I was unhappy that they can take a lot of battle damage and return. I said that it didn't make me stand up and cheer that they had to take a lot of battle damage. Big difference.
