The missile-armed helicopter has been one of the most dramatic innovations in military technology of the past decade. Experience the thrill of chopper combat in this unprecedented look at some of the finest attack helicopters flying today. From the early Hueys and Cobras of the Vietnam War, through the revolutionary design of the AH-64D Longbow Apache, European Tiger and South African Rooivalk, the helicopter gunship has become the dominant force in land warfare and close-range air support due in part to its versatility and mobility.

AT least they mentioned the Cobra, i´ve seen a documentary that said that this disign wasnt chosen and directly gone over to Apache ! I turned that docu off immediately ! LOL !

Outstanding video. The Cobras in Vietnam were another reason why US had total supremacy of the sky. Loaches were used to spot enemy targets and communicate it to the Cobras.

@OlderG0ds there was a hind in the 80's that took off the stub wings and stripped it of weight to get some world records, standard hinds go like 160 or around that. the apache armor is only good around the pilot/gunner and a few spots around the fuel tanks. the rest of it "offically" can resist .50 but only about 35-40% of the chopper is resistant to .50

@OlderG0ds At close enough range infantry MGs will penetrate Apache. There was a mission which went titsup because it was all Apaches either in 2003 and 2006. I forget the precise details at the moment, I'll have a quic look to see if I can find them for you. The mission was retried with UH60s supporting the Apaches and it was successful.

@kevenboy15 You mean its the copter the marines remained stuck with, while even the british have apaches on their carriers.

@HelloPiya The rifle type was never mentioned and if I remember correctly the helo was an apache, however I don't believe that report was ever verified by non-Iraqui news sources, ergo I'm not sure I believe it. However, a major factor in the British Apaches' loss-free combat record over Afghanistan has been their sophisticated counter-measures systems that allow them to fly in the "SAM belt" and thus avoid ground fire, such as rifle fire. As for Abrams, youtube search "the real M1" by BTD

@Ag3nt0fCha0s Probably due to physics & velocity. Weight (W or g) are always acting on the bullets. then drag & heat of course...7.62 round fly at about mach 5

@Ag3nt0fCha0s Its resistant to 12.7mm .50 cal fire but not 14.5 Anti-Material rifle fire.

Nobody fires 14.4 mm right? Except most Warpact armored cars/light armor fire either a 14.5mm high caliber machine gun or 30mm high velocity high rate of fire cannon...

@OlderG0ds rotors resist 23 mm,but other parts are not capable of resist the impact of the 14.7 mm or the .50 cal at 1Km distance,of course you will need hugh balls to shoot an apache team without extra support at that distance

@OlderG0ds Look into the apache on milblogs and military websites.

@OlderG0ds I doubt the Hind can go much faster than 200mph, all helicopters have a speed limit around 250-300 mph because as you go faster in the air, one side of the rotor is supersonic while the other one can barely catch air. And I think Ag3nt0fCha0s is referring to the fact that the military keeps finding out just how vulnerable their attack helicopters are. This isnt anything new really, the army knew that since forever (this is also a plot point in tom clancey's red storm rising).

@kevenboy15 depends on the version and what time period early cobra s where part of the army! but certainly not the new ones

@Saulscmit Well that's good news, I'm glad the Apache can resist .50 Cal., because nobody fires 14.4mm, right? Oh yah, before I forget, at low altitude, the apache can't resist 7.62.

@adrastea99 This series has always had a very NATO-centric viewpoint to it. It's probably half chest-thumping, half stock footage is harder to come by. This is the History Channel, after all.

@corporacionmonstruo if i had an M2 .50 or a pkkm (15mm AA) i would engage an apache if it was hostile towards me, but yes i'd have to be quick cause that 30mm can cause some pain

@corporacionmonstruo no rotors can resist a direct hit from a 23mm AA round. none in the world. thats just obsurd to say. the apache armor is only resistant to 23mm around the pilot/gunner and a few spots around the fuel tanks. the rest of it "offically" can resist .50 but only about 35-40% of the chopper is resistant to .50

HAL LCH FTW.... ? Okay Fyn.... Thts Pushing it a bit too far. But Yeah.... Apache is a combat proven System with Awesome Avionica and Radar on the AH64D Longbow. ofcourse... We can also say the newer Mil28Havoc could be better. But no westerner would ever accept tht. especially on TV. :D As Variatas has so aptly pointed out. Its a very NATO Centric program, not giving credit to a lot of Soviet/Russian tech.

@kevenboy15 Actually before the Apache, AH-1 Cobra was the Army's prime attack helicopter.
@Heaney5551
@Heaney5551 12 лет назад
Not relevant. There are only about 40 of them, so until more are made or they see some combat no documentary will cover them.
