[li]RAH-66 Comanche[/li][/ul]
On February 23, 2004, the U.S. Army announced their decision to cancel the RAH-66 Comanche program after determining the upgrades would be required for the RAH-66 to survive current anti-aircraft threats.
They also planned to use the program’s funds to speed up development of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The Comanche program cost approximately $6.9-billion USD at the time of its termination.
Helicopter Boeing-Sikorsky RAH-66 Comanche has a very powerful weapons, which allows a very effective control of large clusters of the enemy, including armored and aerial equipment. Armed with the model Boeing-Sikorsky RAH-66 Comanche is:

One of the most striking shortcomings of the system of arms Boeing-Sikorsky RAH-66 combat Comanche attack helicopter was missing arms package to fight the power of the enemy alive.

Being well equipped means others will think twice about attacking you.
Despite all the noises the Trump led US administration is making against North Korea, don’t think they are anywhere near launching any kind of attack against the North. No one does that against a nuclear armed country.

Mi 24 is very efficient actually…

8

I know, but you gotta understand war is a business bruh. People rake millions from it

9

Mi-24 is still in production…

10

I think the most powerful war machine is a submarine no wonder you don’t see their pics alot like all this other gadgets.

11

It’s called survival

12

You do know that there are planes that are specifically designed to hunt this submarines…

13

no i don’t i only know of specific missiles but then again when submarines go beyond a certain depth they are basically incognito.

14

Not really…Allow me to explain alittle bit

There are two types of submarines diesel-electric and nuclear submarines. In order to go completely incognito you must turn off the engine and remain very quite, even the crew should freeze a single movement causes vibration and the sonar will detect your hiding spot. This can be achieved with diesel- electric subs but you cant do that in the nuclear subs.

But the nuclear subs can stay deep underwater for months without resurfacing (ask the russians)

15

I mean very well though

You do know your stuff i can’t argue with that but basically what I know is that military technology is always on the top of the priority list for the super powers hence their is always change in technology every maybe 2 yrs making the older one obsolete, and unless i’m wrong information even if leaked is always a few yrs behind.
