    Default Chopers in Iraq?

    I haven't hear for a long time about heli crash.. So whats changed? Insurgents doesn't have sams anymore? Americans doesn't use helis anymore(esspecialy ground heavy apachees)? Or Americans changed tactics and are out of Insurgent reach....?

    Probably the US has just been using different tactics. As far as I know most of the helicopters that have been shot down were shot down by RPGs, though and not SAMs.

    If your curious here's a list of those shot down:
