In 2006 the British Army Air Corps deployed their AugustaWestlands AH-64 Mk1 Longbow
Apaches on combat operations to Afghanistan for the first time. This Longbow has just been
cleared from the ground elements to engage enemy forces in and around a compound situated in
the Helmand Province. To gain better accuracy and precision, the pilots put the aircraft in a diving
profile and fire off anti-personnel flechette rockets at the hostile forces pinning down friendly ISAF
(International Security Assistance Forces) soldiers.
