Yeah, the APKWS should significantly improve helo lethality vs non-tank targets.
For tanks they've had the TOW and Hellfire for years, for everything else they're still using basically early 70's technology.

Fallout Re: Link for USMC Aircraft/Helo Weapons

I thought the APKWS was demonstrated on R. Lee Ermey Lock N' Load show from last summer on History Channel however it was the standard issue rockets prior to APKWS as mentioned is now the standard issue rocket. The old rockets are still a whole lot hurt for infantry though! Providing link to USMC helo part of the show, advance as you like but compare previous rocket accuracy to the current .75 meter accuracy of the APKWS now. http://www.bing.com/videos/watch/vid...c5-56544134230
And I didn't know the AH1J(?)COBRA could carry 16 hellfire missiles as told by the pilot in the video.
Regards,
Pat
