I guess I was wrong. Looked that one up, the south-african chopper is called ROOIVALK (http://www.army-technology.com/projects/rooivalk/)...

I think this could be some kind of advanced Cobra-gunship??! (If you look at the properties of the image, it says "OH-1.jpg" --> that kinda relates to AH-1 cobra I thought...

Isn't that a Mitsubishi XOH-1?

It has the Japanese "Angry Red Meatball" on its tail. I'm not sure it's from Mitsubishi, but it's something along the lines of XOH-1. It can carry 4 AAM's, and it isn't really in service with the JGSDF (Japanese Ground Self Defence Force, their Army) yet.

It is not a Denel Rooivalk.

Am I right?
