[@xenomorphelv426]

When talibs see the Apache it's already too late...

[@rollingstopp]

they dont see it = whisper mode at night ,infra-red

[@remickwhitton1208]

Most of the time they don't even see it, unless they can see it two miles away.

[@DanFrederiksen]

xenomorphelv426 because they are unequipped. the slighest sophistication of weaponry could easily destroy this primitive apache. It's a very vulnerable platform. Interestingly most modern warfare, at least the part in public, is predicated on the enemy being without weapons. A dirt cheap rocket missile with sort of arduino amateur level targeting systems could easily destroy an apache from its normal distance of engagement. in daytime at least. for night time you would need a thermal camera which is maybe 1000$. the apache is a sitting duck. it has no defensive capability of any significance. a decently engineered 1000$ missile could have a daytime kill rate of 99+% and with thermal it would be the same at night. and if you designed a weapon specifically to target the apache you could develop a radio sensor for that particular vehicle signature that would cost a couple of dollars and not be the slightest bit confused by chaff or flares.

[@xenomorphelv426]

Dan Frederiksen the apache can hit target at 8km range. you sure must trust your home-made seeker otherwise Kaboom !!.

[@DanFrederiksen]

xenomorphelv426 I could home make it but who says it would be home made, homie. And how would an apache see where it came from... it has no systems for that. Indeed it would likely never detect the incoming weapon unless it was looking straight at it. And even then that could be countered by making it jet powered instead of rocket. Fly on level ground at moderate speed with ducted exhaust with no significant IR profile and climb up towards it at the end. Or perhaps better, rise at a 45 degree angle and attack from above out of field of view. If the weapon rises without significant IR signature then apache will never see it coming. Try to rely less on dumb murica thinking such as 'kaboom' and instead realize how sick and weak the USA military is.

[@GTRNights]

When you see them turn on the red anti-collision strobe lights, that means "Back up!" They're about to start the engines.

[@RogerCharlesCourtney]

You are so right. I flew waist gunner on a Huey.

[@Simpson3k]

around 6:27 after the helicopter vanished behind the big building in the foreground, it doesnt apear at all while passing the lower building between the tower and the bigger building. But at 6:31 it leaves the cover of the tower at an height that makes me think the movie got edited somehow. Unless the apache droped down extremly low over the ground after it vanished behind the left builing so it got fully covered behind the middle part and then ascend up while behind the tower before leaving its cover. That or between the tower and the left building is a wall wich upper part is painted like sky :P

[@MyFavoriteDisease]

Rotor and radar do show up (very briefly though) the very moment the camera zooms in on the tower @ 6:29.

[@docnathan3959]

What is that whooshing noise a helicopter makes in 2:17?

[@BrandonEdgar]

That is another starting up in the background

[@docnathan3959]

Brandon Edgar You can even hear that when there is only one starting up fully before the other one

[@Hermit_Wish]

you're hearing jet powered engines going on full throttle. Not sure if the AH-64 contains a turbocharger as well.

[@Simpson3k]

sounds like the ignition of the second turbine

[@brockolsen3689]

At the start of the vid only the apu (auxiliary power unit) is running to power the systems. One engine starts at about 1:50, then about 30 seconds later comes up to full idle speed, then the other engine starts at about 2:30. At 3:18 both engines are brought to fly (full speed), you can tell because that's when you can hear the sound of the rotors over the sound of the engines.
