SB, that article is TOO GOOD not to circulate:

Meet the new Air Force helicopters that can 'defy Armageddon' | Fox News

You get a feel for what is coming after the writer has the Huey carrying 10,500 lbs, then puts you on the edge of your sofa when you read about the “ nifty new advances to enhance “survivability” in the 139. Alas, the article concludes prior to any news at all about either ballistic survivability or crashworthiness.
