Only first hand experience around 2.75” FFARs was a check ride in an OH-58 in Mosul in ‘08. Bird came out of maintenance and needed a senior pilot to deem it FMC, but he could take up a non-pilot guy with him (maybe they didn’t want to lose two Kiowa drivers if it broke, haha) so I got to go along. They’d brought over some old flechette rockets for squirters who survived Hellfire strikes but were still alive and had had some apparent failures. He buzzed an island in the river a few times then climbed to altitude and ripped off a couple doubles. Coolest time I’ve ever had in an egg beater |

Most common 2.75" warhead has a total weight of around 9 lbs with an explosive weight of a little over 2 lbs. There was a hi-cap 2.75" warhead (M229) that weighs 16lbs with an explosive weight of a little under 5 lbs but I'm not sure how often this version is used and I've only come across the smaller warhead. I'll try and remember to get side by side pics when I go back to work next week. |

The high capacity of the batteries provides the unique ability to use the ARM without additional power from the main engine or an auxiliary generator, thereby enabling true silent watch on silent work.
