The Comanche is first available to the player in Guardian Angel. They are also the only aircraft among General Granger's forces to not have a Point Defense Laser system, most likely for balance of gameplay, as a large swath of Comanches with single PDLs would be extremely lethal to almost every single ground unit. Comanches in general suffer from poor armor.ĮMP weapons are also capable of causing the Comanche to crash by disabling it. Rogue MiGs and Raptors are also quite dangerous to it.
Most anti-aircraft units are effective against the Comanche, notable examples being the GLA's Quad Cannon and China's Gatling Cannon.
Groups are capable of destroying most anti-air units. Interestingly, if a Comanche using the rocket barrage ability is ordered to stop before expending the rocket supply and another target is within range, it will fire the remaining rockets on said target (provided it's an enemy unit or base defense) before using its gun and primary rockets.

The Rocket Pod upgrade enables a Comanche to fire a staggering amount of rockets in a given area, and was capable of being used to destroy buildings or a large group of units, making them effective for demolition duty in a pinch. They make very good base guards, as they are immune to Rebel Ambushes, infantry drops, tank drops and a large enough group can destroy a Sneak Attack tunnel before it is fully deployed. In groups they are potentially very dangerous, particularly in the case of General Granger's 'Stealth Comanches'. Highly maneuverable, it is effective against ground units of most types, especially infantry and light vehicles, which are easy prey. The Comanche's chief purpose is close air support for ground units on the offensive. For even more firepower, it can gain rocket pods via the Rocket Pods upgrade. Its nose-mounted chaingun is deadly to enemy infantry, and its homing missiles deal good damage to vehicles and buildings. A staple combat helicopter in the USA's arsenal, the RAH-66 Comanche is fitted with multiple weapon systems capable of quickly destroying ground targets.
