All the tarmac scenes were filmed at Ft. Hood using my Dads' Apaches and buildings when he had command of, what was then, The Apache Training Brigade. I was there during most of the filming and remember first meeting Nick Cage and as my Dad shook his hand he told him to "go get a haircut", still one of the funniest things he ever did. All the actors were very cool and had some great stories to tell about the other movies they had done.

I love seeing Dale Dye in anything. The man is a legend in his own lifetime. A Vietnam vet, retired as a Marine Corp Captain and has appeared in movies or been a technical advisor on films and tv shows since 1986. In Wings of the Apache he stars as Colonel McNeil but you can usually see him as a captain or colonel in most things that want to add some real military feel to their characters. I suppose one of his most recognised roles was as Colonel Robert Sink in Band of Brothers and he put the actors through boot camp before production of that series.

Little then instructs her to remove one of the still-functioning Stinger missiles from his AH-64 Apache and attach a grip stock unit to it so it can be shoulder-launched: this is readily possible as the air-launched Stinger (AIM-92 or Stinger ATAS) is identical to the ground version, even retaining the sighting unit. This is one of the earliest appearances of an actual FIM-92, as previous launchers seen in film and television were actually the discontinued FIM-43 Redeye. It is also a rare case of a Stinger in film appearing with a real grip stock unit, rather than a fabricated one fitted to a spent launch tube.

@13mike27 So in real life it could simply be dismounted and immediately used as a standalone MANPADS? How does its fire control interface with the helicopter? Data cable? When firing ATAS mode from the helicopter gunner's seat, would the same 45-second time limit apply (due to the BCU) or is it receiving power from the aircraft (cable) and basically unlimited time to track and fire?
@lolman345_8
@lolman345_8 Год назад
@@gunsmithgeoff8218 ancient response, but the handle data bus plugs into the same port on the ATAS launcher for vehicles, the only difference is that the vehicle launcher has two larger tanks which provide 8 45 second launch windows. You can take a stinger tube from a ATAS and use it as a MANPAD, in a humvee stinger launcher or the emplaced mount without any modifications, its fully plug and play. Only change between the launchers is that the hand held setup just takes the individual power + cooling canisters.
@gunsmithgeoff8218
@gunsmithgeoff8218 Год назад
@Lolman345 _ I appreciate your reply. So you're saying the onboard tanks hold more argon, but they still only transfer enough coolant to the seeker for a 45-second window per "arming"? So can the gunner re-arm and get another 45-second window immediately afterwards, if he wants (like with no interruption in seeker functionality)? How does he do that, exactly? Do you know how many BCUs an Apache of that era would've carried for dismounted (handheld) use? Maybe just the one stowed on the MANPADS handle assembly?

They stopped screaming it and now have it as their ringtone.

Meanwhile the speaker is broadcasting the Airwolf theme song on a loop.

Read this book before and it was really awesome. At the start of the book, Ed used rockets to attack a group of Taliban hiding in some bush and he mentioned the number of projectiles in each rocket and the number of rockets fire. The result was gruesome when ground troops did a BDA. Also the request for support for a US F-15 when they needed heavier munition which their Hellfires were not enough. The last part about the rescue of Royal Marine at Jugroom Fort was nail biting when the pilot landed behind enemy lines with some Marines strapped on the stub wings to retrieve the body of the fallen Marine.

What shook me was I never realized how fast the gun can be turned on and trained. I loved this review!

Back in 2005 my battallion HQ was moved to an old flight sim building on the flight line at Hood, and those simulators had what looked like an exact replica of the Apache crew compartment. I remember they were mounted up in the air on long hydraulic cylinders, and you had to use a catwalk to reach the cockpit. The computer room that drove it all ran off those large magnetic tape reels, so my thinking is that it was original Apache program equipment, from when the Army was first transitioning units in the 80s. Contractors tore it all out not long after we moved in.

In the stinger launch scene the stinger motor lobs itself about 9 meters before the flight motor kicks in to protect the operator from backslash. She was attempting to convert the stinger from weapon round to ready round. However you wouldn't put the BCU in the gripstock assembly until ready to launch back in the 80s I was 16s in the Army which is stinger crewmember

When I was stationed in Bosnia during IFOR. We would call in dust offs to clear crowds and the responding helo was always an Apache. It scared everybody to run and disperse. She is an amazing bird. I knew one of the CW5’s that ran the entire unit. He was a cool person to talk shop with! I always wanted to fly them. I went a different path though. I did learn rotary, yet my point is follow your dreams and have no regrets! There is a plan believe in that plan!

He could have said "I want every Chickasaw, Pave Hawk , Black Hawk, and Sea Hawk from here to Fort Mitchell fueled , hovering , and discoverin' where in the 8 known and charted levels of magestic fuckery my target is ." Perhaps he could have done one of his patented dressing downs of a sassy subordinate "now listen up , there is no room for your Roy Scheideresque Blue Thunder era hot doggin' in my elite rotary wing squadron , you get out there and employ proper helicoptering techniques or so help me God you'll be flying an R22 called "Lady Zip Tie" outta' Myrtle Beach showing retired plumbers from New Jersey the mystical realm so few have seen just beyond 130 feet above their time share for the low low price of $19.00 "

@@kennyraiden9346 I guess shooting down bad guys with an onboard heat-seeking missile doesn't have the same dramatic effect as the rocket pods.

@kennyraiden9346
@kennyraiden9346 3 года назад
@@run2u520 Thank you for a great explanation and I liked it! Probably the filmmakers wanted the scenes with firing Stingers so that was how they put in a script. I didn't know the Stingers can be dismantled and operated manually. To shoot down the aerial hostile from the ground brings out more excitement and sure it did. As you mentioned, sending airstrikes to knock down the potential threats is more practical and probably that's how the US forces conduct the operations. When it comes to that, the Army's air cavalry's call to eliminate the ground hostile such as artilleries, SAM sites, and armed vehicles embedded with the surface to air arsenals prior to the fighters/bombers to move in. That might have been so climatic though, the F16s might have stolen the stage over the Apaches if they had done it. Instead, I really loved the sequences of the Apache and the Little Bird are going air to air. I presume the filmmakers must have done so much research and discussion for writing the script to narrow them down to that footage and definitely that was a job well done. It is kind of a good flick but somehow this movie is a bit underrated, I don't know why. Anyway thanks to Mover for choosing this movie, I guess it kind of shined a light on.

Love your "Mover Ruins Movies" series, so keep up the good work. The way the "panty training" is supposed to work instead of directly using the simulator is by restricting the dominant eye. It's a very common rehabilitation technique for limbs after a stroke or other type of neurological injury (I've never seen it used for eyesight though), but the way it is supposed to work is this: When one of your arms is affected, you instinctively begin using the unaffected arm more and more, which makes rehabilitating the affected arm harder, so one way to rehab it, is by restricting the good arm (like with the use of a sling), to force you to only use your bad arm to help it regain some function. Here the concept is basically the same. In the sim he could still use both of his eyes, so his dominant eye would still well, dominate, making it harder for him to process the information from the other eye. With the panty and periscope he was forced to only rely on his non-dominant eye by taking away his dominant eye. In theory it should help, although he wouldn't notice any benefits after a single training session.

There's some WWI biplane combat, and then the British pilot time travels to the 80's and steals a police JetRanger helicopter ("If you can fly a Sopwith Camel, you can fly anything!"), and then time travels back to WWI and uses the chopper to destroy a German secret weapon. Fun stuff.
