yep. nose has the FLIR and laser designators and also the camera.


looks like the same version as the one that went down. "The AH-64D Longbow is fitted with the Longbow millimetre wave fire control radar and the Longbow Hellfire missile."


without the radar on top of the rotors.


the real reason they would be shitting in their pants if they saw one flying around. M230 chaingun good for killing tanks but also works well for soft targets.

Although I can relate, we have to remember we aren't savages. In a time of war, I'd take a POW and ruff'em up, but thats about it. When I was in boot camp, they showed us video footage of the Army helicopter pilot being dragged through the streets of Mogadishu. I'll never forget that nor would I ever do that to an enemy combatant.

I thought the whole chopper was armored? at least against most small arms fire (not rocket launchers if hit on the vital areas).

"Built for "nap-of-the-earth" fighting, the Apache moves like other helicopters, but it has the weapons and armor more reminiscent of a tank."
