Ha! Wait till you hear about scout helicopters.
- no armor, no 120mm, still consumes as much fuel as armored vehicles
- Any hit to any rotor (big or small) takes it out
- Any damage to the thin tail boom can cause a crash
- Cockpit not just exposed and vulnerable, but can also easily be hit from the ground
- Flies low and slow so they get shot easily
- Cannot operate high in the mountains because of thin air
- Cannot operate too close to the ground because of sand in engines and optics
- Is inherently unstable and constantly trying to kill all occupants
- Literally became useless the moment drones were invented
