... I mean, REALLY tough!



I was practicing my landing "skillz", and overshot my intended touchdown point, which took me directly through a Kiowa. The Kiowa promptly disintegrated, leaving nothing but a few scraps of metal and a burning patch of asphalt. My UH-1H, was (due to my aforementioned landing "skillz" of course...) completely unscathed.

I'm impressed that you managed to separate the "United States" writing from the side of the Kiowa!
