Are the Apaches fitted with de-icing gear? Last time the green Lynx with their antitank missiles weren't, so couldn't be deployed. This time we have no other attack helicopters - the Lynx missiiles have gone, as have the missile carrying Wessex / Scout / Gazelle - unless a squadron of Gazelles could be scraped together? But they'd have low survivability.
Just wondered what de-icing gear the Scout and Gazelle had and especially how on Earth Lynx manage to operate in the Arctic
Oh and ref the Apache...yes.
