Default Re: SAM Effectivness

Forgot to mention something about helos, too. Remember that the more sophisticated (and with any luck survivable) your helo, the more infrastructure you will need to keep it up and working.
As opposed to a Huey-type helo (even armed) you better not let an advanced combat chopper like an Apache or a Tiger 'sleep on the field' or scratch-repair it in a hurry with the repair van's toolbox.
So if damaged, you wouldn't land such an advanced-tech helo 500m behind FLOT but rather take it back to a decent base for extensive maintenance.
