If we have this capability, I am sure our soldiers will have more than enough confidence and courage to launch ang assault anytime.

No more Tipo-Tipo blunder.

The AH6 Little Birds have shown their effectiveness. We can do the same to our existing MD520 fleet.

Mas type ko pa rin yun Hind as not only can it carry troops but also bring to action serious firepower. Maneuverability and fuel-efficiency lang need to be addressed. Mas nakakatakot makita yan than the smaller birds lalo na kung AK o M16 lang bitbit mo.
Command is about authority, about appointment to a position. Effective leadership is different. It must be learned and practiced in order for it to rise to the level of art. You must love those you lead before you can be an effective leader. You can certainly command without that sense of commitment but you cannot lead without it; and without leadership, command is a hollow experience. .. a vacuum often filled with mistrust and ignorance.

My point exactly. Improve on something what we've got on the moment.
