Cobra VS the Apache
i would like to ask Every one that plays with the USA to help me with this i play with the USA almost every time .but what have noticed is that the AH-64 is not the better than the AH-1 cobra the only difference that i noticed is the ability to use the ROCKETS so they fire rockets in high numbers which is effective against buildings but if i spam the AH-1 i don't need the 600$ more expensive AH-64 do i ? so i think that the rate of fire & accuracy of the AH-1 should b decreased & the price of it increased as well unless this is just me so people if i am wrong please tell me

Both helicopters are fine. Apache is the most advanced one. It has about twice longer range of rockets (not mention that it's rocket have much more power then cobra's). Also it has flares, that cobra don't have. Apache flares are comparable to Mi-24H. Those are really efective.
Ah-64 is extremely usefull against tanks. Even T80 with shtora will not be able to survive for long. At the second shot it will be destroyed usually.

Yes u are wrong/mistake Ah-64 Apache is not similar AH-1, 1st of all Apache is more higth tech unit than Cobra, 2nd Apache have 30mm firecannon while AH-1 have 20mm, 3rd Apache have 8x Helfire Missles while Cobra have 8 Tow missles. And one Helfire mislle may destroyed normal (not veteran) T-80BV, while one Tow missle can`t do this. 4th like u say Apache have ability to firerockets( ungiudied missles) and finaly Ah-64 is longer range helicopter, while Ah-1 is medium range.
So I think that Cobran don`t need to decrease range, it`s ok how it now. hope that u understood now.

you ARE wrong ;]
AH1 has less powerful gun, smaller range of missiles, strength missiles [ ! ] is lower plus AH-64 sometimes deploy flares in self defence.
So yea, u NEED those 600$ more

Indeed, AH-64 Apache's Hellfire missiles are VERY deadly, even M1A1s get destroyed very easily with them. Also think of it this way, an Apache can take out a long-range Anti-Air unit like SA-11 with a risk, an AH-1 Cobra can't even get in range to fire at it.

Actually not in spam they could i am one of those people that believes that a 100 moderate tanks with a fair price are better than 50 great tanks with high price or 200 bad tanks for low price between the USSR&the USA versions & all the reasons you said doesn't change the fact that the difference is 600$ meaning that 10 AH-1 Would cost me 15000$ while 10AH-64 would cost me 21000 so the difference could give me 5 so for every 10 AH-64 there is 15AH-1 so i would rather use the Cobra

Anyway it`s u rigth, but still remember that more higth tech unit is always own less tech unit, this mean for example 3-4 Ah-64 is better destroyed 10 T-80bv and 2-3 sa-11 , tnat 10Ah-1, and probably 10 Ah-1 can`t do this cuz will be down by 2-3 SA-11, while apache have chanse to killled Sa-11 and then destroyed T-80s. Also u may used with Apache next tactic with enemy AA long range unit like sa-11 there is fire by helfire to Sa-11, than originaly after u shot Hellfire sa-11 shot it`s missle to u Ah-64 , so after Shoting your Hellfire move u AH-64 rigth or left and u Apache will automatic shots contermesseges
btw u may used tactic what u prefere, but i`m repeat to u that one higth tech units is better than 2-3 weakest units (low tech units)
