Should there be an entry for Aerial Rocket Artillery helicopters in the Vietnam lists ? It would be handy if someone planned to field an AirCav Battlegroup .

In rules terms these are direct fire weapons, or could be used as an airstrike.

Fair enough . actually , I was just about to ask whether they should be counted as Aircraft . But if for example , I was using UH1s mounted with rockets (as opposed to multiple MGs etc.)then it should have most of the stats of a UH1 but more attacks yes ? In which case ,how many , and what shoul it cost ?

Sorry , I thought that was just the standard "gunship" and that the increased fire factor was for "TOW" .
Cheers !

TOW is noted for the 72 version, 1 flight of those only.
