    First, the 30mm ammo is link LESS.
    It is put in a ammostorage contairer just after the landing gear.
    It uses a chain that transport the shells to the gun wich is electricaly fired.
    A new thing in use is a smaller ammopack. Not 1200 but 300 rounds and the rest Fuel! It is already in use with the US Army and The Netherlands Airforce.

    The netherlands airforce uses no stingers, neither does the US army.
    Instead The Netherlands airforce uses the stinger hard points now for the missle warning system and flare boxes.

    If you want to see how manouverable the AH-64D is check out at Fairford this year!!!!!! the AH-64D solo display team is flying there (if everything goes right :p )
    A Dutch one. He is also going to Switserland if I’m right. hope to have the dates soon.

    It will make some loops and maybe some rolls.

    Yes the apache is slow but I want to hear your opinion when you flying 100 knots between the trees. They have to remove the seat from your but with a crow bar.
    The apache is not made for urban warefare and as we al saw in the movie blackhawk down a RPG is already a big menace in urban ereas.

    It was impossible to leave Berlin at 30th of april 1945 Borrman tried but failed and the ones who escaped to south Americas where not save for the Mossad. The capured Adolf Eichman in Argentina.
    Maybe its better this way. The troubles you get when you catch a dictator, just look at Sadam. And when they hanged Hitler then the vengence was done for al the victems??

    Napalm
    Napalm essentially “jellied” gasoline saw its first combat use during the invasion of Tinian in June 1944. Dropped by fighter-bombers and bombers it was used in subsequent assaults in the Pacific. For example, during 16 days of ‘softening up’ attacks proceeding the invasion of Iwo Jima B-24s dropped 1,111 drums of Napalm on the island.

    On the German and Japanese cities they used firebombs to create the firestorms bud I do not know if that was Napalm.

    I do not know if they use napalm annymore bud the fuelairbomb is one of the replacements. Only the working way is different.

    In the Netherlands Heath care is at an high standard. Nothing is for free and everybody from 18+ has to be insured for health care.
    You have to pay a percetage from your pay check for health care and you have to pay a sum to a insurance company.
    The costs for the goverment are verry high at the moment and if nothing is done the cost are gona be so high that it is not afordeble anny more for our country. We have long waitinglists for some threatments and the chanche of laying alone on a room is not verry big. only when you have a spreadeble desease.
    But no complains from me, i’m healthy and I hope I never have to go to hospitals, I only bin there to vissit.
