not sure if they are not.So they are not offering hellfire missile with Apaches ????
Any source?Indian Army is already going for Spike.
US is offering 812 AGM-114L-3 Hellfire Longbow missiles in Appache weapon Package....So they are not offering hellfire missile with Apaches ????
yesaccording to wkiki....pak operates RBS 70, stinger and mistral....is that true...??
hellfire is an anti tank missile ....So they are not offering hellfire missile with Apaches ????
Is that your assumption ? . It can not hit a helicopter at a height of 4.8 kmwell Stinger block 2 has a range of 8000 meters which is the same as the RBS-70, it is combat proven and comes at fraction of the cost. Furthermore, it is truly man portable with the complete system weighing only 15 kgs. Any soldier standing can fire within a moments notice. Stinger was the nightmare that ended the soviet occupation of Afghanistan. I think we should order it for our soldiers. With TOT we can make those at home in large numbers.
It all depends on the application. Nimrod and Spike NLOS can be game changers with their huge range.Any source?
Both Spike NLOS and Nimrod are heavy missiles. Spike ER is more suitable for Apaches.

Choppers fly low.what will we do with missile with 8 km range on helicopter.
Pakistanis had stingers on every mountain top during Kargil War.well Stinger block 2 has a range of 8000 meters which is the same as the RBS-70, it is combat proven and comes at fraction of the cost.

Raytheon FIM-92 Stinger
India has IGLA'S; the seeker is usually the complicated part.How much it takes for a nation to make her own MANPADS ? Are their any plans for India designing her own MANPADS needs? it is a complicated piece of technology not to have it yet?
The ground launched version has a range of 4.8km, the air launched version has an 8km range but it isn't effective at it.well Stinger block 2 has a range of 8000 meters which is the same as the RBS-70
I mean indigenous and domestic production.India has IGLA'S; the seeker is usually the complicated part.
