  1. Why do we keep buying American crap instead of building our own and emboldening our own industry. Come Sun you should be supporting the UK not American industry.

  2. "it's Putin’s worst nightmare".. bla bla bla… just a empty words.. give them to Ukraine and you will see the truth.

  3. People or so negative about British military down sizing the numbers on size off military personnel!!!, NEW wars will not be fought with numbers of military personnel, but with A.I and super advanced tech unmanned fighter planes, drones, robotic A.i soldiers, give u greatest e.g 150 British marine soldiers in war games with USA marines 1,500 made the USA marines surrender, U can search this on Google, YouTube, Newspapers, but morale off story numbers off humans against lesser military numbers will not win wars!!!!!!! But A.i and super advanced tech will know win wars in modern future

  4. is UK giving those apaches to Ukraine or UK pilots fighting @ Ukraine? both cases don't make sense…… but also Russia has Kamov and Mi28….

  5. it's mostly murica who loves this, cause they get your money and cause the wars where this will be used. Putin probably doesn't care.

  6. Is the MELB-X, newly designated “MH-6R", the "Little Black Bird" helicopters of 160th US Army Special Operations Aviation Regiment (160th SOAR), appears is ready for deployment as a top secret Pilot-optional new special ops helo, with state of the art stealth and fuselage armour technology and navigation and secure communication systems.

    As well as both electronic-warfare and advance passive active sensors systems, plus new digital flight by wire flight control systems and new state of the art weapons too, even increase onboard fuel tanks with a removable in-flight refuelling probe that can be installed quickly to give extended range and endurance too.

    To provide Tier One US Special Forces, a clear advantage over any of the international Islamic Terrorist Groups, or over the likes of the Chinese, Russians, or the North Koreans and Iranians, in any future West East conflicts or wars.

    With the new “MH-6R” or the "Little Black Bird" ready for anything, plus can have a flight of four or six of "MH-6R's" helo's plus their pilots and ground support crews and necessary SF Operators too. Can be anywhere in the world, within 24-hours from the United States, via C-17's and C-5's or by C-130J's flying West over the Pacific Ocean or East over the Atlantic Ocean too.

    The only question is will the new "MH-6R" replace only the older "MH-6's" only, or will a fleet of new "MH-6R's" replace older "AH-6's" too?

    Maybe a second question, will these new "MH-6R" helo's, be offered to Nato and other American Allies own Special Aviation Units too?

  7. great attack Helicopter no question but helicopters are very vulnerable against a capable foe with the some of the best surface to air missiles around motorised and hand held drones radar etc.

  8. that's good, very good technology, some of the best the army will ever produce, but! can we get more than idk 15 built this time?
