WOW665 AH-64 Apache

Description

The Apache is a twin engine tandem seat military attack helicopter. Originally developed for the U.S. Army and now manufactured by Boeing. It is designed to find and destroy enemy tanks and armored vehicles, but also performs other missions like Intelligence, Surveillance, Target Acquisition and Reconnaissance (ISTAR), command and control, and escort. The helicopter is armed with a 30mm automatic cannon, 70mm rockets, and Hellfire missiles.

• Multi-role operations: The AH-64E model is designed for modern warfare and can be used in diverse environments from deserts to the Arctic.
• All-weather operation: It features advanced targeting and night vision systems that allow it to operate effectively in low visibility conditions, including at night.

• Rockets: 70mm Hydra-70 rockets.
• Missiles: AGM-114 Hellfire missiles.

Key features

• Targeting: It uses nose-mounted sensors and Target Acquisition Designated Sight (TADS) that includes a forward-looking infrared (FLIR) camera.
• Radar: Modern variants may feature the Longbow radar, which can detect and prioritize threats from the air.
• The helicopter is also protected by armour plating and a Defensive Aid Suite (DAS) to counter any threats.
