The F22 Raptor still has guns on it thanks to the Vietnam War. 2. All armies now use the assault rifle (pioneered in the Vietnam War). 3. The M1 Abrams MBT (Main Battle Tank) was pioneered on the combat experience obtained from the M48 Patton's combat experience in Vietnam, among other conflicts. 4. Today's Kevlar helmet is based upon lessons learned in Vietnam combat. 5. Today's Blackhawk helicopter is based upon lessons learned from the UH-1 Hueys (Iroquois) combat experience in Vietnam.
