Nope. It's the American Stinger missile (FIM-92 I think it's called,
right?), shoulder launched only -- the helicopter-launched model isn't in
service here because they haven't decided what attack chopper to buy, the
PAH-2 Tigre or the AH-64 Apache... I won't bother anyone with the details
behind _that_ story :)
