Air power.........

[K K Rossokolski]

One point that must not be lost in any consideration of airpower addition/modification is that even today, it does not function 100% reliably. Newspaper reports doubtless exaggerate, but reports of friendly fire/blue on blue still appear.
My own experience tells me that even seeing a target from a low flying helicopter at 100 knots is hard enough, let alone identification and taking it under fire. Much trickier if one's own people were in contact. Therefore, we must accept that, for example an antitank aircraft will not always engage the specified target, or even an enemy tank, but might shoot at anything. He might be late, or not not turn up. He might attack his own Corps Commander.
What we have now is a quite reasonable SIMULATION...maybe needing some adjustments. As I said above, the AA is, I think, too effective. And the aircraft mix needs somework.

We do not need some pinball arcade "bombers" that can't fly but can project their bombs from the ground at very unlucky bad guys miles away out of sight!!!
