[TheNetHasEyes1]

@conza410 What on your xbox?

[discofishing]

It's nice to see the AAC getting MTADS finally.

[patsyd80]

Ill never forget getting hit by a tungsten armour peircing round from one of these babys right in the base of my back. Boy did it hurt I still get a slight back ache when I lay down. Had a nasty little bruise for a week or two after aswell. akmed kabul.

[thelittlejacob1]

the RAF don't use attack helicopters, all helicopter pilots in the RAF just do transport. this Apache was meant for the AAC.

[TheLabrador43]

You forgot RAF in description, But cool vid

[relemar]

RAF don't use this. Army do.

[TheLabrador43]

The RAF have some

[relemar]

No, the RAF do not use Apaches. The army air corps do..

[TheLabrador43]

Not at all, Theres an RAF base near southport that has them.

[relemar]

They store them yes.. but RAF do not fly them.

im fairly sure it's the army air corps that fly Apaches.

[TheLabrador43]

Nah, They are RAF apaches. Army Air corps would be on the tail if it was, Also my i am going to RAF leeming on the 12th so i will see if there are any

[relemar]

so the RAF own them?

look on the net, they don't have an attack chopper the RAF. theyre more fixed wing :P

so your saying RAF fly these?

[TheLabrador43]

The RAF do have attack choppers lol.

[relemar]

Ok, whats the attack chopper they fly? APACHES ARE FLOWN BY ARMY AIR CORPS, NOT RAF.

Are you from China or the US?

[TheLabrador43]

I'm from England and They Fly lynx attack choppers too

[relemar]

yeah but lynx's suck. the apache is for army air corps, i guarantee.

[TheLabrador43]

Yes mainly but there are a few in the RAF

[SheepJumpFish]

Look I read the first few comments in this conversation and it's only the AAC, army air corps, who fly the Apache or any form of attack helicopter, the Lynx has had TOWs before, the RAF helicopters are just the Merlin, Chinook, Puma, Sea king and some Griffins in Cyprus. That's all they fly, the navy don't have any AHs either just the AAC. A few RAF pilots may transfer to the AAC but I guarantee the RAF do not have any Apaches, and no the Lynx does not suck

[yascumbag]

@SheepJumpFish well the lynx is underpowered for daytime flying in afghanistan

they only use them at night

[xfinchx]

@yascumbag well that's weird as i was on one in afghan,,,,during the day. fuck off talking about things you can only dream of doing.

[yascumbag]

@xfinchx well it was british army pilots that made that claim!

[SheepJumpFish]

@XxeventerxX1 I can't remember but I'm sure if you were to look back someone said it, and actually the Mk9a is the lastest version, in use by the British at least, I don't know about some of the foreign variants like the Super Lynx which may be even more up to date but the first Mk9a Lynxes have only been arriving in the past few months, June I believe. I do know about the Wildcat, pretty much just a digital Lynx isn't it probably with some changes to the airframe and engines?

[tarkinfish]

Although they're to be replaced by the WAH-64
