Jordanci hoce da doniraju filipincima 2 AH-1F Cobra
http://defense-studies.blogspot.rs/2018/04/m113-armored-vehicles-and-ah-1f.html

Citat:The Philippine Air Force is still finalizing the acceptance of the helicopters, while defense officials are said to be negotiating with Jordanian defense officials toincrease it back to four helicopters. It still remains to be seen if this request could be approved.

It is still for clarification if the Jordanian AH-1F Cobras being offered are among those new builds they obtained in the late 1980s from the US, or ex-US Army units transferred in 2001. While Jordan received former Israeli AH-1F Tzefas a few years ago, it is highly unlikely that the units offered to the Philippines are from this batch of helicopters from Israel.

The Philippines is also not the first country to receive AH-1F Cobras as donation from Jordan. Earlier this year Kenya was reported to have received at least one and probably more AH-1F Cobras from Jordan.

Japanci traze zamenu za svoje AH-1S
http://www.jwing.net/news/1288

Citat:Japan has issued a request for information(RFI) to replace its ageing Fuji-Bell AH-1 Cobra attack helicopters.
The RFI, reported by national media earlier in May, is aimed at finding a replacement for the 71 AH-1S helicopters fielded by the Japanese Ground Self Defense Force (JGSDF) since 1979 (of which 59 are reported to still be operational).
The effort to replace the AH-1S is known as the AH-X project and while no details of the RFI were released in respect to the manufacturers being approached or the helicopter types being considered, the front-runners are expected to be the Boeing AH-64E Apache Guardian and the Bell AH-1Z Viper.

Dobijaju Hellfire, izmedju ostalog...

Citat:Under the contract, SES performs Depot Maintenance Work Requirement (DMWR) inspections of the airframe, tail boom and components after which structural modifications are installed and the aircraft is completely rewired. Once completed, a new glass cockpit is installed based on the Northrop Grumman Integrated Avionics System used in the US Marine Corps’ AH-1Y Venom and AH-1Z Viper, and the US Army’s upgraded UH-60V Black Hawk. The instrumentation includes two L-3 multifunction screens and a single Rockwell Collins flight instruments screen.

An L3 Wescam MD-15D multi-sensor multispectral targeting system replaces the original laser range finder and tracker. A passive self defence suite comprising the Orbital ATK AAR-47 missile approach warning (MAW) system and active countermeasures including the Extant Aerospace ALE-47 chaff/flare dispensers are installed.

The AH-1F/S Cobras were Raytheon BGM-71 TOW-compatible versions of the Cobra. The SES upgrade includes Lockheed Martin M310 AGM 114R Hellfire launchers in addition to seven or 19-round 70mm unguided rocket launchers. The RJAF plan to install software later for the use of the BAE Systems Advanced Precision Kill Weapon System (APKWS) when the last of the upgraded Cobras are delivered at the end of the year.

The SES upgrade is completed with the installation of automatic stabilisation equipment (ASE) and a Rockwell Collins ARC programmable digital communication system. The upgrade cycle from when the aircraft is depopulated to maintenance test flights is eight months
