cap Posted October 27, 2004 Report Share Posted October 27, 2004 otooley ------ I believe that you will find that these are the new design composite blades along the lines of what were developed for the PAV/LOW and new Cobra. Considering the built-up areas the German Army frequents. that would explain the tapered edges also.......to quiet them down a bit They're also supposed to be substantially lighter also. YOU give me a call, you 'ol crud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
