AH-64 Apache Helicopter Platoon

First flown in 1975, the AH-64 Apache was designed as a replacement for the AH-1 Cobra. Development of the prototype continued over the next decade, and the type finally entered service with the U.S. Army in 1986.

Designed to perform at the front line of battle against Soviet forces, the Apache was equipped with night fighting and all-weather capabilities. Its armament consists of a 30mm M230 Chain Gun with 1200 rounds of ammunition and, depending on configuration, can carry up to 16 Hellfire missiles and 76 Hydra 70 rockets in up to four pods.
