My point being, that apache is not exactly the most marinised of platforms. Yes you can jump off a ship, but sustained ops?
From the Telegraph: "The helicopter operation – expected to be supported by Special Forces troops – will take the allies closer still to a full ground operation in Libya"
So SF will do target recces (and have been already, probably) and will soon be doing a JTAC role, which is another stage of creep.
How long before the Apaches are land-based in a rebel-controlled area?
I hope 2 Sqn RAFR are working up
