The Apache AH-64 is a twin-engine attack helicopter with a tandem cockpit, designed for close air support, anti-tank missions, and armed reconnaissance. Developed by Boeing (formerly McDonnell Douglas), it boasts a sophisticated sensor suite including a target acquisition and designation system (TADS) and pilot night vision sensor (PNVS). Armed with a 30mm chain gun, Hellfire missiles, and Hydra rockets, the Apache is a formidable force on the battlefield, known for its agility, survivability, and ability to operate in all weather conditions. It has been a staple of the U.S. Army and several other nations' armed forces for decades, continually undergoing upgrades to maintain its combat effectiveness.
