The 101st had an ugly incident during OIF 1 with a bunch of Apaches getting shot up. I do not know the specifics, but helos are very vulnerable, no doubt.

But a pair of cobras flying low were an awesome asset, and they are alot more flexible than fixed wing. Both are priceless.

Yeah, the 101st launched a deep strike near the Karbala Gap to support the 3rd ID's movement on Baghdad. Due to a combination of overconfident planning, poor route selection and the Iraqis getting smarter, every single helicopter (I think total was 28-30) got hit with small arms, RPGs or AAA. One was shot down and it's crew captured.</font>

Are we going to have this same type of focus on the WWII version?

If so, will there be add-ons to get these types of forces?
