The AH-1 Cobra weapon systems include which combination?

• A. 30 mm cannon, Sidewinder missiles
• B. 40 mm grenade launcher
• C. 105 mm cannon
• D. 20 mm cannon, TOW missiles, 2.75 inch rockets

Answer: (D)

Armament mix defines the Cobra’s combat role, combining a close-range cannon with anti-armor capability and flexible rocket fire. The AH-1 Cobra is equipped with a 20 mm cannon for suppressed fire at short distances, it can carry TOW anti-tank missiles for long-range armor engagement, and it can also deploy 2.75 inch rockets for rapid area suppression. This combination—20 mm cannon, TOW missiles, and 2.75 inch rockets—reflects the Cobra’s intended loadout and capabilities, providing direct fire, anti-armor reach, and battlefield area effects. The other options include weapons not standard to the Cobra’s typical configuration, such as larger caliber cannons or air-to-air missiles, which don’t fit how the Cobra was routinely armed.
