12 seconds to go 3000 meters? It could fall faster than that.

AH-64s normally carry 1,200 rounds...at $100/roundI'd love to take off with $120,000 of ammo aboard.

820 ft/sec... 560 mph...what’s terminal velocuty for one of those rounds?
To: ProtectOurFreedom
LOL. A lot of people would.

Not as beautiful as the thought of that “Oh, Sh*t,” moment when a jihadi hears the distant sound of chopper blades and looks down to see that red laser painting his chest.

I kind of hate to see them spend $100 per round to kill a few jihadis, but if brings more of our guys home alive and in one piece, I’m all for it.

You beat to my calculator. 833 fps is subsonic but it does get there. Plus, to paraphrase one of the aliens in the film Galaxy Quest, "and it explodes!"

You beat to my calculator. That's because my iaito is lighter than your katana, thus faster (but less dangerous ;-))
