Agreed, made me ask though, are those big "Standard Missiles" effective against something flying as low & slow as a chopper?

That's out of my scope. They have some on certain ships that can take out aircraft but I'd think they'd just use the big Gatling gun type guns for that, that can track a fly through the sky from what I've heard. I was only on a ship 3 times in my career and I didn't get the grand tour

Fleet air defense operates in layers. There are different range based engagement zones for different weapons systems. Low and slow can cause problems but not insurmountable ones.

You have convinced me never to retire. Sounds like too much work.

I spent a bunch of time this week inside a black metal trailer. It was pretty bad but your situation sounds worse.
