Choppers, the Achilles heel in the Afghan war Reuters Blogs (blog)

Back in 2002 during a reporting responsibility in Afghanistan, a U.S. helicopter pilot told me that it was important to send a message early on that “we own the skies, non-stop or day”. So at any given point of time if you were at the Bagram air base, north of Kabul, you could see aircraft, mostly choppers prepossessing off, landing or simply idling in the skies above in what became the region’s busiest airfield.
Seven years on, the U.S. military is holding on to the skies ever more rigorously panty hose as the ground below slips away to a Taliban insurgency at its fiercest level. And because they fly more and because the terrain and weather are baffling, the chances of things going wrong increase, as happened earlier this week when 14 Americans , including 11 soldiers, were killed in two other chopper crashes.
U.S. soldiers were twice as likely to die in a helicopter crash in Afghanistan than in Iraq, Time publication reported. It quoted Michael O’ Hanlon of the Brookings Institution, who is keeping a rolling regard of U.S. casualties in Iraq and Afghanistan, as saying that it wasn’t hostile fire that was bringing down the choppers. “The necessary issues have to do with terrain, weather and of course frequency of use,” he says.
