Apache missile lock on Lotus Elise

[hood]

Turns out that Top Gear (British Car Show) tried to have an Apache get missile lock on one of their drivers, going around with the highly maneuverable Lotus Elise on the track. Apparently when it was that close, it wasn't able to do it. When it went out to 2 miles away however it had no problem at all. They've got the episodes up here:

Saw it when it was on TV, pretty cool, although Clarkson did say afterwards (I don't know if it's on that clip.) that at that range the Longbow would have just used the cannon to split the car in half. :D :lol:

Top Gear is class

racing harriers and cars, Apache vs Elise, palying darts with cars, destroying countless caravans, crashing, drowning, blowing up a toyota pick-up and then getting it going again with not spare parts. pure genius..

Now that was great! Espcially taking it with the high-rise and setting it on fire.
