Helicopter AN-64 (Model 77) designed by "Hughes gelikopters" for the destruction of enemy armor at any time and in the most adverse conditions. Prototype YAH-64 flew 30 September 1975 city, and with 1981 g. He became known as "Apache". The first production helicopter "Apache" was flown in January 1984 g.

Helicopter AN-64A "Apache" is formed on screw scheme, with a four-bladed tail rotor and, low aspect ratio wing and tricycle non-retractable wheeled landing gear with a tail wheel. The wing is removable. The fuselage of conventional design, Semi-monocoque, made of aluminum alloys with high strength and toughness materials.

crew double cabin, a tandem seat. Located on the front of the second pilot arrows, and in the background, upbeat on 0.483 meters to improve visibility, - pilot. armor, protects the cockpit from the bottom and sides, and transparent armor partition between the seats are made of Kevlar and polyacrylate and protects against bullets and projectiles caliber 12,7 and 23 mm, respectively,. helicopter design provides maximum protection and allows you to perform a task after serious damage in combat. High levels of survivability attained cab booking, two independent hydraulic systems, retreading fuel tanks, as well as the main booking systems and the most important parts of the airframe.

Powerplant helicopters AH-64A "Apache" consists of two turboprop takeoff power on 1695 hp, housed in nacelles on the sides of the fuselage. The fuel system includes 2 total capacity of the tank-sealing 1157 l. One is located behind the seat annuals, the other - for the main gearbox. The maximum duration of the flight is 3 o'clock 9 minutes. Besides, on wing hardpoints helicopter weapons may be installed 4 external fuel tank with a capacity of 870 l. A helicopter equipped with a tricycle landing gear with the fixed gear wheel caudal. The chassis is designed for normal speed before planting 3,05 m / s and an emergency landing speeds up 12.8 m / s. Takeoff and landing can be made from the sites, having an angle of inclination to 12 ° in the longitudinal direction and 15 ° in the transverse.

Helicopter AH-64A is equipped with various types of electronic equipment. there were a total of about 12 units. The basis of the combat power of "Apache" helicopter is a system of detection and target designation TADS, Night Vision pilot - PNVS and comprehensive helmet-mounted targeting system IHADSS, allows you to control small arms and rocket-head movement. components TADS: laser pointer rangefinder with a tracking system. IR system front hemisphere and television system review. PNVS - an advanced system FLIR (airborne infrared system front hemisphere review), which supplies pilot information, needed for the flight in a combat zone with tracking terrain at an altitude of, that prevents or reduces the likelihood of detection of enemy helicopters.

The main armament of "Apache" helicopters are 4 suspension by short wings, for up to 16 anti-tank missiles "Hellfire". which provide fire against point targets and have an autonomous guidance system, or 76 70-mm rockets with folding fins, or a combination thereof. Besides, Single-installed automatic gun M230E1 "Chain Gang", placed in ventral turret (caliber 30 mm, ʙoezapas 1200 shells). At the ends of the wing can be set SD "Stinger". Maximum weight arms one suspension assembly is 700 kg.

modifications

AH-64A "Apache His» - option for antisubmarine naval and Marine Corps forces, horizon of exploration purposes. Helicopter "Apache C" can be removed at a distance 240 km from the Navy connection to find and destroy enemy ships or PKR NUR. Besides, helicopter can provide cover for the landing.
The export version AH-64A "Apache International" bought Israel (18 machines), Saudi Arabia (12), Egypt (24), Greece (12). OAE (20), Bahrain (8), South Korea and Kuwait.

AN-64B "Apache Bravo» — 254 machine AH-64A, minimally improved, taking into account the experience of military operations in the Persian Gulf: increased wingspan, modified cabin layout, increased engine power, Suspended tanks increase flight range 200 km.

AN-64C - an intermediate version AN-64A helicopter without radar Longbou and engine Dash 701 FROM. The first of four advanced options, past 2,000-hour test program. I climbed into the air 15 April 1992 g. It was supposed to modernize 308 helicopters, but in 1993 g. the program was closed.

AH-64D Apache Longbow

AH-64D «Apache Longbou» - improved AH-64A installed above the plane of the screw of the radar system of millimeter fire control range of "Martin / Westinghouse Longbou" in combination with antitank missiles AGM-114 "Hellfire" such as "fire and forget". I climbed into the air 11 Martha 1991 g. Serial embodiments feature a more powerful engine Dash 701S and motors T700-GE-701 C; this standard is reworked 227 helicopters. The first of 535 improved helicopter AH-64C / D entered into operation 1996 g.
"Apache" helicopters were used during the fighting in Panama 1989 g. and during operation "Desert Storm- at 1991 city, when it has been involved 228 AN-64 helicopters.

– THEIR: 4 × 19 × 70 mm Hydra

Arming AH-64 “Apache” It allows him to destroy tanks. The main advantage is achieved at the expense of a greater range of defeat. So, the missile AGM-114 action “Hellfire” up to 11 kilometers, and the maximum range is controlled tank missiles 4-5 kilometers (generalized distance of all existing tank missiles in the world, It ranges from the smallest to the largest). Heavy machine guns range tank reaches a maximum 1500 meters against aerial targets. Also, the range of the missiles “Hellfire” lets not go into the nearest enemy air defense zone (to 8 kilometers). In this way, MANPADS “Needle”, “Willow”, “Stinger” can not hit the helicopter, covering tanks.
