[edit] Unheard

very good work here, but I think we need to make this article more prominent, otherwise all the effort here will be wasted.--Ariedartin 14:28, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] AH-64 Subsystem To Be Added

we'll need to add a section detailing the armament subsystem of the AH-64 Apache. its younger brother the AH-1 Cobra has a section, but the big brother and main actor doesn't. hmm..--Ariedartin 07:39, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

The real issue with the AH-64 is that, at least as of right now, there's only one subystem for it, the M139, which covers everything (including the AH-64s defensive flare launcher), except its missile launch capabilities. I am unsure if there are actually designated subsystems, or whether it suffices to say that the AH-64 has the ability to launch the AGM-114 HELLFIRE, FIM-92C/D Air-To-Air Stinger (ATAS), or previously the the AIM-9 series. --Thatguy96 09:12, 4 May 2006

[edit] XM8 Merger

Support: It appears to me that the XM8, because of the extremely limited scope of the article, will be a perpetual stub. Suggest moving it in with this article. -- Thatguy96 14:34, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

Support, as the US Helicopter Armament Subsystems article covers it already. Sharkface217 18:27, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
