  3. Ok thx Were their any Cockpit updates on the A model giving it Glass MFDs that anyone knows of? Just interested to know nothing big. This is most of the reason I was asking, based on this post i was curious to know if the A implemented here would be an upgraded model that I had been reading about or just the original A model. This is info I read on different models basic upgrades but in smaller context so i would not flood the post. I Highlighted in red the upgrades i was asking about and also if they have any cockpit upgrades for Glass pit as stated above which I have not been able to locate any information on publicly. wo major models of AH-64 Apache are in service in the US Army: the AH-64A and the AH-64D. AH-64A The AH-64A is the original production attack helicopter. It is powered by two GE T700 turbo-shaft engines. The crew sit in tandem in an armored compartment. The helicopter is armed with a 30 mm M230 chain gun that can be slaved to the gunner's helmet-mounted gunsight. The AH-64A carries a range of external stores on its stub-wing pylons, including a mixture of AGM-114 Hellfire anti-tank missiles, Hydra 70 general-purpose unguided 70 mm (2.75 in) rockets, and AIM-92 Stinger anti-aircraft missiles for defense. AH-64B In 1991 after Operation Desert Storm, the AH-64B was a proposed upgrade to 254 AH-64As. The upgrade included new rotor blades, a Global Positioning System (GPS), improved navigaton systems and new radios. Congress approved US$ 82 million to begin the Apache B upgrade. The B program was canceled in 1992.[2] The radio, navigation, and GPS modifications, would later be installed on most A-model Apaches as part of an upgrade program. AH-64C Additional funding from Congress in late 1991 resulted in a program to upgrade AH-64As to an AH-64B+ version. More funding changed the plan to upgrade to AH-64C. The C upgrade would include all changes to be included in the Longbow except for mast mounted radar and newer engines. However, after 1993, the C designation was dropped.[2] The upgrades would go forward. However, since the only difference between the C model and the radar-equipped D model was the radar, which could be moved from one aircraft to another, a decision was made to not distinguish between the two versions, despite the presence or absence of the radar.
  4. First of all would like to say great forum and looking forward to the Sims release. I just had a queastion about the AH-64A model. Were there any glass cockpit upgrades to the A model and is there a varient of the A model that is considered a LB. I am asking because I have only very limited information about the history of the Apache so please forgive me if it is a stupid question. If there is a Longbow version of the A model then could it be the model of choice for the sim, or is the D model THE longbow? If not will this A model have an original non-glass pit or will it be an A model with updated Glass pit? Thx Again
  5. Copy that, thx for the info.
  6. Hey thank you for the Resp. It is a shame cause i have been looking for a Heloi sim for the Apache that would be released. Thought they might be here in this Sim. Last Question, will there be a 2 seat model of the Chopper and if so will 2 Players Be able to ride in it at same time? Thx again
  7. Was woundering since i am new to this, in Black Shark what Helicopters other then the Black shark will be flyable, and if there are no other Flyable ships in first release will you be adding any such as the AH-64 for the american forces. Just Curiouse? Thx
