Why RAH-66? Whats wrong with the AH-64? RAH-66 is faster but lighter, AH-64 slower but can carry more stuff, better suited to bust tanks. . . but the RAH-66 sure LOOKS cool. . .
And to reiterate what others have said. . ., go easy on the new paper... and its tabloid in the first place, most of its staff would be worried about the latest trend among the young people (>35 or so), the teens, and the sports (esp. soccer) that people are interested in. Their target audience is not a bunch of crazies like us. . . basically, having said that though, i think they shouldn't publish such stuff which IS outside their scope and have never heard off in their life. . . hopefully they either learn to shuddup on such issues in future or get someone with an idea of what is going before they start writing rubbish.. . .
and notice most of the reported stuff are stuff that have been CONSIDERED by the various countries, not neccessarily bought, so will someone who has the article kindly check and see if it is an expected procurement list OR a 'bought list'
