AH-64D Apache Longbow Helicopters gallery. The AH-64 Apache is an all-weather day-night military attack
helicopter with a four-bladed main and tail rotor and a crew of two
pilots who sit in tandem. The main fixed armament is a 30 mm M230 Chain
Gun under the aircraft's nose. It can also carry a mixture of AGM-114
Hellfire and Hydra 70 rocket pods on four hard points mounted on its
stub-wing pylons. The AH-64 is the principal attack helicopter of the
United States Army, and a successor to the AH-1 Cobra. The UK operates a version of the Apache called the Westland WAH-64 Apache, and is designated Apache AH Mk1 by the British Army. Westland has built 67 WAH-64 Apaches
under license from Boeing replacing the engines with more powerful
Rolls-Royce units. A folding blade assembly for carrier operations is
another important change so they can operate alongside amphibious
forces off Royal Navy ships. The Westland Apache replaces the Westland
Lynx as the British Army's tactical attack helicopter. The WAH-64s are
currently deployed in Afghanistan. British WAH-64 Apaches are
using the Longbow Fire Control Radar in Afghanistan, saying that it
improves situational awareness and avoidance of other aircraft during
tactical maneuvers.
