Think about it a minute:

Are we going to know coming up over a ridge line at full speed which "prepared defensive site" has just armor or just cannons (easy for chppers to attack), a mix of armor and AAA (more difficult, will need softening up and double air attack), and which are "only troops" with anti-armor rockets, and which are just troops with only AK-47's?

So, you either slow down and drop bombs on everything - too slow, and wastes ammo you're gonna need later; or assault as hard as you can with what you've got available - making certain assumptions about what weapons are still hidden?
