OA,
I'd say it is an Army capability delivered in a Joint environment and I'd go as far as to say the crews can hold their own in that environment.
It's not a question of how the Army operate the aircraft but more a question of how it is employed that can be questioned at times. Once you get away from 16 AABde then the wider army still needs educating as do some elements of non-army JHF headquarters.
The wider army is still waking up to its contribution in the kinetic battle and discovering the appropriate balance between burning hours on escort and the like against having it able to repond and deliver kinetic effect. Not always, there is a balance to be struck and the customers (HQ's) are becoming more aware.
