The other's an excellent transport that I enjoyed riding on while hanging out the door with a M-60D to hand as OPFOR at Hohenfels.
SO the real question is what's your mission? One can't do what the other can do.
Agreed.I could hang a hellfire under a gyrocopter (like an Army Aviation magazine proposed back around 1980) and rely on ground-based designators.
I'd still rather have an Apache for that mission![]()
Yeah true... But if we are talking about the black haws that were used after the 9-11 attacks, It will probably be the black hawk.

Can people vote? The reason of this poll is for you people to vote.
When they took out the leader of al-Qaeda, Osama bin Laden.What do you mean used after 9-11?
The Black Hawk has been in service since 1979.
The majority of UH-60's are utility, transport, and medivac. They are usually armed with just two window mounted machine guns used for suppression fire. As such they cannot be compared to an AH-64 Apache which is an attack helicopter.
I was a Black Hawk Crew Chief/Door Gunner in the Army. I have over 1600 flight hours in her, including more than 600 combat flight hours.
