Not to mention that even jury-rigged rockets made of duct tape and
acetylene 
tanks are as accurate and effective as Precision Guided Munitions, and
no 
one EVER dies in Letter-Team episodes.	Ever.  The most amusing/bemusing

instance was the time they were engaged in a helicopter chase scene (car

chases having been done to death, plus the producer had some new stock 
footage he wanted to try).  They leaned out of their chopper, and fille
the 
enemy chopper with lead.  It lost tail rotor power, went into
autogyration, 
hit the side of a cliff, dropped 100 ft down the cliff, and upon hitting
the 
slope at the foot of said cliff, rolled downhill another few hundred
feet.  
The badguys climbed out, QUITE dazed.

I want that brand of chooper for MY airmobile forces.
