No Sensors?
EO/Visual turret with operator in the loop. RWR. Radar if Army so wish it. Nope no sensors!

No weapons?

M3M and GPMG from cabin door positions and Wildcat Army version will be able to use the Light version of FASGW.
Nope no weapons!

Armed Attack?
Is that not the job of the mighty, might WAH? My impression was that the Wildcat found it and the Apache killed it.
Nope no Armed attack role just as the customer directed!

Limited movement of men and material?
I refer you to the customer direction again.

Wildcat is not an SH or an AH, it was never ever intended to be so. Just an agile ISTAR platform that could operate as a battlefield taxi for the General. If it was an SH then the RAF would have had it and the Army would have nothing.
