AH-64
Apache
The Boeing AH-64 Apache is the US Army's principal attack
helicopter, the successor to the AH-1 Cobra.
Built to endure front-line environments, it can operate
during the day or night and in adverse weather using the
integrated helmet and display sight system. The AH-64A is
also equipped with some of the latest avionics and
electronics, such as the target acquisition designation
sight, pilot night vision system, radar jammer, infrared
countermeasures, nap-of-earth navigation, and the global
positioning system.
General Characteristics
Notes
Recent reports indicate that the craft is vulnerable - of
the craft deployed in Afghanistan in 2001-02 over 80%
were badly damaged by ground fire.
An additional problem is that when firing the Hellfire
missiles fragments can fly into the rotors, damaging
them. To combat this the pilots have been told to fire
missiles only from the right-side pylon.
The craft have also proved themselves unsuitable for
desert operations, they require repair and maintenance in
a ratio greater than 2:1 for hours of flight.
