Les, Ya know, I don't think these Apaches will help NATO very much. After all, they need to find targets to hit. What are they going to shoot at? Most of the Kosovo police/paramilitaries are driving around in stolen range rovers. All ya need is an AK-47 and a box of grenades and you can be an ethnic cleanser. If we can't shoot it with the GBU's and MK-82s with the infrared designation system on board the 707s, what makes us think an Apache will do any better? Not only that, I think the refugees are going to be in serious trouble with those IR lock-on gattling guns those Apaches have on their noses. This whole situation is getting worse. Just wait till the Russians start arming the Serbs with the SAM-10 "grail" IR shoulder fired rockets. I think thats what they bagged the F-117A with. It is the state of the art "stinger". Those things are going to be trouble for any low flying aircraft. -John
