Ships arent nearly used as they once where in WW2. I dont forsee any major naval battles in the future, especially with all the air transportation that is provided now adays.
An airplane and a helicopter are totally seperate things. We decrease the number of lives lost significantly with planes dropping all of their smart bombs, while with most helicopters the lost of life that is decreased isnt nearly as high.The reason is that we lose a lot more of our troops in crashes. The helicopters that are deployed in Iraq and Afghanistan are not doing to hot. Most of the Cobra attack pilots could barely find their target due to the dastardly sandstorms. The convoy on RCT-7 and RCT-1which held the 1st 2nd and 3rd Marine divisions were attacked by their own friendly fire. The attack helicopters over in Iraq were providing a lot more of a reconnissance mission then actually attacking the feedeyean that were held up behind civilians and popping out of corners to fire a stray RPG or AK. The copters plain and simply could not fire back, because of the civilian casualities that would occur. Instead they would just fly around that target area until the Marines could get in their and find them. Im not trying to denounce the importance of attack helicopters in a war state, but I just do not think that the Commanche wouldve been an extremely wise use of our money. Im pretty satisfied with the Apaches and Cobras dealings. As far as you stated with the Cobras 30+ year old airframe, its been touched up here and there, just think about what could be done upgrading that beast even more? Save a lot more money, and get about the same results. Thats just my opinion though, you are right in your own way, and Im right in mine! Were both right! Very Happy

The F-15 will not be superior to the final build of the F-22. Plain and simple. Give the F-22 a couple of D' and E' versions and youll see one of the most formidable planes in the world.
