Operation Atlantic Resolve is a U.S. Army initiative aimed at demonstrating commitment to NATO allies and partners in Europe. As part of this operation, Apache helicopter units are deployed to enhance readiness and deterrence against potential threats. These deployments involve rigorous training exercises, joint maneuvers with allied forces, and strategic positioning across Eastern Europe, ensuring rapid response capabilities and bolstering the defense posture in the region. Hughes AH-64D Longbow Apache Designed to meet a US Army requirement for an advanced attack helicopter, the AH-64 was first flown on September 30th, 1975. Called "The Apache," this formidable helicopter replaced the AH-1 Cobra as the principal attack helicopter for the US Army. At the time of its introduction, the Apache was revolutionary, with an innovative helmet mounted display and improved crash survivability. It is heavily armored and has been called a "Flying Tank," not only because of its defenses but also because of its ability to inspire fear on the battlefield. The Apache has become a symbol of Army airpower, serving in both Gulf Wars and in Afghanistan. Copyright 2003-2024 The Flying Mule, Inc.
