These Are the Most Heavily Armed Helicopters in the US Marine Corps
The United States Marine Corps is known as one of the fiercest fighting forces on Earth, and this is largely reflected in the firepower that its aircraft bring to the table. Today, we're focusing on helicopters. The USMC has a handful of combat helicopters that are armed to the teeth with machine guns, rockets, and missiles. (This is what you'll see inside a Marines Corps armory.)
While some of these helicopter's function in more transport and logistical roles, they still come equipped with the necessary firepower should the need arise.
One of the mainstays of the Marine Corps is the AH-1Z Viper, a twin-engine attack helicopter that only entered service in 2010. These helicopters come with advanced targeting systems that play into the host of weapons they can equip. Its capabilities make it ideal for close air support and precision strikes. The Viper is essential for clearing paths for ground troops, disrupting enemy fortifications, and it can take out enemy armor if needed.
