Armored Heliborne Assault Marine Corps style!...pics by Lance Cpl. Gabino Perez
Ok. The title was click bait but I have to ask. Has this capability ever been used in combat? Have we even ever done an artillery helo-raid (did the Marines do it in Desert Storm...can't think of any other conflict where it was even a possibility)?
I can't even think of a reason to actually do it! You'd be hazarding not only your gun crews but also the helicopters! If you're gonna say ship to shore then I say this is pretty damn wasteful of resources. Is this just one of those neat-O type things or does it have a practical application in the playbook?
