The AH-1J \"Sea Cobra\" was developed and the USMC ordered this version of the Cobra in May 1968. Featuring the Pratt and Whitney Twinpac T400 engine (two 900-hp turboshaft engines coupled together) giving an overall increase in installed power, the AH-1J Sea Cobra included a new nose turret gun, with the three barrel XM197 20mm cannon, as well as other improvements. While development and production of the first 49 ordered were under way, the Marines obtained 38 AH-1Gs from the Army.\n\nThe Marines depended on attack helicopters to provide close-in fire support coordination in serial and ground escort operations. Such support was required during amphibious ship-to-shore movements and subsequent shore operations within the objective area. As a result the AH-1 was designed for the following tasks:\n\nArmed escort for helicopters carrying personnel and cargo\nLanding zone fire suppression support\nVisual armed reconnaissance\nTarget marking and direction for high-performance attack aircraft and naval gunfire\nConvoy escort and fire suppression for ground units\nOperations from air capable ships\nPoint target attack of threatening armor\nSelf-defense and protection of helicopters carrying personnel and cargo from threatening air-to-air weapon-equipped helicopters",
