'E' STANDS FOR "EVERYTHING WE CAN THINK TO FIT ON IT AND STILL GET IT TO FLY".....
Echo’s aren’t new…they’ve been in the inventory since 2017. Also they don’t run T901 engines, no one does…they run 701D’s. The T901 is the ITEP currently being tested by PAO 🙄
I've worked on this program, and is a great attack helicopter. I would have preferred the army use Honeywells T 55 Engines same engine as Chinook and be use in the army new helicopter.
Thanks for the clarification
@@ManuelTorres-gd5jpIt would make sense using the same engines across the board.
29 ordered by Australia
Great clip, thanks for the upload :)
My unit had over 90% ready to go and available in the beginning of Desert Storm. That was the Alpha model though. As the war progressed that number went down but we still had over 80% despite the fire we took. Great helicopter. The Delta and the Echo models are probably different animals with a lot more capability than my original model had. I wrote this again to clarify because of the questions I received.
I see this video uses older footage from the Model D for M230 cannon section, as shown by out dated gun turret pics. Former Boeing Weapons System Engineer for the cannon AHS.
Don't Just love the leg room... 3:11 OMG I GOT A LEG CRAMP
if the DEWs can be adequately adapted for repeated firing these Apache's would make a great anti-drone platform
Kind of inefficient. Why not have a drone anti-drone system?
DEWs might be incorporated into the self-defense trick-bag. High Power Microwave DEWs might be a 'shotgun' anti-drone measure in uncongested battlespaces.
@@douglassauvageau7262 you want to chase around drones with a 52 million aircraft?
I wonder how and how often the weapon sights must be calibrated. The technology must be fantastic!
Interesting Video, THX 4 posting.👍
Instead of the Cheyanne? 😳

Its so powerful this helicopters I like it
The Veteran Guy said that when he was serving in that war the Apache Helicopter Pilots upon hearing that he was in the Company that they were near flew to him and bowed to him in the Apache Helicopters to him an Apache as a sign of Respect.
My dad told me that there is a Guy who is a Veteran of the USArmy here on the White Mountain Apache Tribe that Served during the Gulf War.
It should come with exterior seats for the Royal Marines in case they quickly need to rescue someone.
It is the same Heli from the 80s.....Remeber the 80s.............it is now 44 Years...you know!!! It is fucking old !!!
Not Army, but they are the helicopter force! Other services fly them, but it’s a small number.
🙏🙏👍🎉
Try greenwire now too
“..will include following upgrades..”
The important words are, “will include” as in the future, meaning some day in the future.
Able to carry sidewinders I believe also.
Drones are king
We have drones to not just little cheap drones used by Russia and Ukrainians use
It would never use Sidewinders as the Air Force and navy controls the airspace. What the hell are they going to shoot down? No enemy fighter can get within 200 miles of the combat zone. They're only proving that yes we can mount a Sidewinder on their. They can also mount a tuna sandwich on the tail boom, it's not like they're actually going to eat the damn thing.
Yes its possible but its not practical due to US army operating in their air superriority zones.
Possible wingtips missiles: Sidewinders (2), Sringers (4)
@@Agnus78 I was not only a cobra pilot but a training officer in four different combat divisions. Air-to-air is nothing we actually trained for. Ever. When I started flying in Hawaii I noticed the Stinger crews, in their humvees. And I started to seriously think they actually don't have a job. Well technically they have a job but it's not something that they'll actually get a chance to do in a combat situation. We are very good at shooting planes out of the sky. Doing that job for 10 years not a single training scenario has come up with enemy aircraft. We always have air superiority, or in the words of a stinger platoon sergeant if it flies it dies. I'm almost certain he wasn't talking about us.
Try redwires too in one
What happened to the longbow version?
They literally showed the longbow in the video 🤔
@@MrCyp200la The longbow was taken down with a hail of enemy rifle fire in a few cases. One drone through the windscreen or rotor blades will be more effective.
@@Kaatu-barada-niktoone drone can take out one target. And attack helicopter can take out dozens. They're not quite equitable.
What are you talking about lol@@Kaatu-barada-nikto
same as it was yesterday and tomorrow and the next day and next week
Don't see helicopters in Ukraine. Boeing? Hmmm.
It takes close to a year for an army helicopter pilot to graduate flight school. It's a helicopter, not a forklift. It's a little more complicated than a fixed-wing airplane.
Why are people wearing masks?.....
Still can't keep up with a Chinook.
Please advance ment of your this technology please sir please
The Army has worked very hard to improve this helicopter over the years and surely will replace it once it's near perfect.
Ohh could it be a leftie here?....
2060s? I wouldn't count on that. Things are about to change
Yes they are, we are broke and sliding into depression soon!
@@speedracer2336 well the airlines seem to signal reduced activity, china is whimpering broadly on luxury spending, could be a recession setting in somewhat.
But I meant more drastic technology changes with UFO disclosure
Jim brown, NFL GOAT.
YOU JACKASS!!
I thought this and the Blackhawk were going away and going to be replaced?
Same with stealth bomber. Many ordered but after cold war needs changed and demand dropped in half. Nothing is certain. After ww3 needs will change again undoubtedly
Who wrote this story? 99% of the stats and dates are years off. I went through E transition in 2015
I am a US Navy veteran of 8 years. Your statements of the DEW system are completely inaccurate.
Wait hold on.....Boeing.........uuuh

The U.S. military pays Native American tribes for the use of their names 💯
US Army Legacy Weapons named after Native American Indians.
To honor Proud Warrior Tribes.
🇺🇸 🪓🦅🇺🇸 Makes Sense
@@lisaroberts8556 Whoa you're just a female stay in your place.
Yes and their imposters.5$
That's BS
No they don't ! The military does ask permission to use their tribal names though ! There's no way they can stop ANYONE from using a name
Have any been given to Ukraine/
Well I was in flight school if you were lucky it would take you approximately 9 to 12 months to get through the flight program, depending upon the helicopter your chosen to fly and the weather. Learning to fly a helicopter is a lot harder than learning how to fly a fixed wing.
It’s not new and it’s called the Guardian. Starting fielding in the mid 2010’s.
How much it costs each??
$35 million while the older version cost $68 million each. I believe the difference is R&D costs.
Oh~No! ... It's a BOEING!
Only Apache can fly Apache
My dad told me that there is a Guy who is a Veteran of the USArmy here on the White Mountain Apache Tribe that Served during the Gulf War.
The Veteran Guy said that when he was serving in that war the Apache Helicopter Pilots upon hearing that he was in the Company that they were near flew to him and bowed to him in the Apache Helicopters to him an Apache as a sign of Respect.
I hope it has good defense against drones swarm.
Boeing upgrades? Oh dear.
there isn't much here. Just a bunch of angsty war music, a bunch of diagrams, and honestly, this doesn't sound any more equiped than the last apache.
this is further proof that pineapple belongs on pizza
What happened to the Comanche? Oh wait that's still secret...sorry.
Retract the wheels and you will have a 170mph machine.
The landing gear has nothing to do with the top speed.
Don let Chinese know will copy cat4sure😢
Let's hope they can stay in the air. In Desert Storm, only 50% of them were combat ready at any given time, from what I heard.
There was a case where a longbow chopper was taken down by rifle fire. That was at the time the very best.
Over 90% in our unit. But that was the Alpha model when I flew them. I'm sure the Echos are a different animal
@@john1137 You mean 90% were down? If true, I do hope the Echoes are better. I know I'm dating myself, but I still love the Huey Cobra. I think only the Marines fly them now.
@@Kaatu-barada-niktoguys, it's a freaking helicopter in a war zone. Nothing is impervious. What are you expecting? It's called battle loss. Happens in every war.
You heard wrong.
I think the cobra would be a far better choice smaller just need more updating. Apache cost millions compared to the cobra. Soviet has the worlds best helicopters and you can see them being lost in Ukraine.
The Cobra is inferior in so many ways. Soviets don’t have the best helicopters in the world. Have you ever flown any of them? I didn’t think so.
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL..........155 mph the CH-47 is almost 196 mph, and can fly just as high, and can fly at least 450 miles. And the Link 16 is a highspeed data link between various platforms.
It's not the job of the Apache to fly fast and high. It's the ability to fly low and slow. It's not a lift aircraft it's an attack helicopter. Different missions different flight profiles. You may as well compared to a learjet.
4:05 This guy comes across as smug and self-righteous. Being in favor of guns doesn't mean being in favor of political violence.
PASKAA !
Please increase your helicopter sized please sir
Does it have cloaking ability or speed of light😢😢😢😢
With the exception of Airborne radars, Attack Helicopters skimming the ground is very very hard to see. The ability to hit targets miles away while you're hovering in the Treetops makes you near invisible to the naked eye. But you can rain down destruction on people who have no idea where you are. For those odd individuals with tactical Radars the second you turn them on the electronic warfare system will identify exactly where you are so good luck with that one slick.
10 trillion dollar investment of your this technology please sir please
Will discontinue much quicker than expected . Drone choppers carry more and can do missions longer without a pilot , and can fly extreme maneuvers at low level flying , making it far more evasive than human driven helicopters. It will not need to refuel , rearm has it will use nuclear energy to generate lazer weapons and powered electronic engine .
Except those don't exist except on tv.
Between these 64Es n the technology our drones have are nothing but deadly on air n especially ground base warfare. These preppers n militias think they can just hide are in for a veryyy rude awakening. 😢 I cant even imagine what you would be able to survive any contact with these awesome birds.
Even in heavily wooded n triple canapés jungle environment, even with the right skill sets. You'll be more than lucky to seek a hide n on the move. You better hope n pray God has His Apache 64E pilot's hand picked if the American People ever take on a tyrannical Gov't.
PRETTY SCARY to hear that '' BOEING '' made this !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Boeing Starliner stranded two astronauts on space station for more than a month. The original plan was one week visit and return.
NASA might hire Musk to rescue them.
The Apache has had issues since they first started upgrading it after the Alpha models.
@@Justin-dy2ibso did the Wright flyer
@@mrgrinch837 of course it did but how many years has the 64 been flying and how many different models since the Alpha’s at this point?
Right now they’re throwing tail rotor blades because the shitty company Boeing contracted to make them.
Prior to that its rotor head has always had issues. It’s time for a replacement.
@@Justin-dy2ib just to let you know I was Airborne infantry for almost 10 full years and then went to flight school. That's my photograph that you see flying a huey in flight school. After that I wanted to cobras and flew those for almost 10 years. I went to the Apache transition, and I got to tell you it's one of the safest aircraft we had in the inventory. We take aircraft incidents extremely seriously. I'm not sure where you're getting this whole idea about the aircraft disintegrating and flight but that just doesn't happen. I think that you should probably find reference material someplace else. Additionally, the United States Army has more aircraft than the Air Force Navy and Marine Corps combined. Do we have incidences that occur, of course we do. It's just a factor of pure numbers but what you guys are laying here are just ridiculous. As far as the attack series, anytime we had an aircraft with major upgrades we change the designation. I went from flying the AH-1S through the AH-1F model Cobra all the way to the ECAS model in Korea. They look the same but they sure as hell ain't the same machine. Therefore they change the designator for that aircraft. This from a retired attack helicopter pilot. I realize that you guys are only listening to stuff you see online but there's a lot of bad information out there. Boeing has had a couple of spectacular incidents so now everything that they built is garbage? What in the world! Boeing presently has hundreds of thousands of aircraft in the skies and they don't fall out of the sky every minute of the day. They had a couple of incidences, that doesn't mean the company only puts out crap. The Apache is one of the toughest aircraft I have ever seen up close and actually sat in. I hate to say it but it out did my aircraft by a mile. It's tough to shoot down, not impossible but it is absolutely survivable. It's comparable to the Russian tanks as opposed to the Western tanks. They just don't blow up when you look at them the wrong way. So, in closing you guys are listening to some horrible information and just kind of spreading it around.
I really wonder in real world how this helicopter would fair compared to what we’ve learnt in Ukraine lo-fi helicopters are shot out of the sky with man pads. This only works if your opponent doesn’t have surface toair launch missiles
The KA-52 has to be about 500 meters from the target and only seem to be able to attack in the daytime. The Apache gunners can fly armed drones while being in a flying Apache. Those drones can be several dozen miles away from the helicopter.
@@orlock20 But that doesn't mean the enemy isn't within MANPAD range
@@jonnyboy8000 MANPADS can take down jets including the F-35 and F-22. That is why recon infantry is so important.
It was not conceived as a "Multi-Role" helicopter it was designed as a Tank Killer for a war in Europe that never happened, they are now trying to get it to fill multiple roles on the battlefield which it simply can not do. It's a great attack helicopter but it absolutely blows as a Scout/Recon platform, it's too big, loud and has shitty close in visibility for that role it's noise and rotor signature give away it's position too easily to operate in anything but it's original concept as an attack platform. Do everyone a favor and stop blowing smoke up the publics backside or assigning it to Cavalry Units you're not fooling anyone.
Still think they should use RAH64 comanches.
Those were never built slick, try to keep up.
@@mrgrinch837 I never said they were. They obviously have no need or reason for stealth and chose to continue with the Apache only as they really only would be fighting in Afghanistan They would be the only counter for the S-500. They would actually be like the F-22 and F-35 which still continue to operate most likely electric and drone operated. They clearly have had a technological slowdown in development as they felt they have a sufficient arsenal.
@@_google_user_ your exact words were still "think they should use the RAH 64 comanche". That would portend that the choice is there. As far as attacks on sophisticated anti-aircraft radar systems I'm a retired attack helicopter pilot, that's not a part of our mission. We cover the Infantry and the armor. Those anti-aircraft systems would be so far ahead of us we have to get refueled just to get to them. Additionally, we don't really show up on ground-based radars. But I guarantee you the Air Force and navy has a system to wipe those things off the face of the earth. There's no need for helicopters to get involved . We'd be like a kindergartener getting involved in a Street brawl. Attack Helicopters are not involved in that type of thing
@@mrgrinch837 Oh okay. Well you pretty much explained it with proof as a veteran air force pilot. It was hypothetical to me if they continued with this type of design and what its mission would have been and what if as there is a real need for its design was originally for. I have no argument "the Air Force and navy has a system to wipe those things off the face of the earth." Thanks for speaking.
@@_google_user_ if it helps you to know, we have a strategy on how we fight battles. The first thing in would be the Air Force Jammers and bombers. They take out the radar systems and the command control and Communications element, the c3. We didn't send in low-level strike fighters to take out the airstrips to keep them from flying away. Just like Desert Storm then we start bombing the living crap out of them for a week and a half maybe 2 weeks until they've been degraded to a significant amount. And then finally after that that's when the ground troops come in, and that includes the attack helicopters. By the time the ground element moves all defensive radar systems will be wiped out. The Army and Marines basically show up for cleanup. Bottom line, we don't need to evade radar because they won't be in existence at that point. It's quite the party if you've got an invite.
10 minutes and did not learn a thing.
Being a Boring product, will the upgraded “E” variant have a canopy that blows off for no reason in mid-flight?
That clunker of a junker has a tail rotor which is not needed in today's arsenal. Dual counterrotating rotors is the way to go now. This is obsolete AF.
Absolutely.
You wouldnt say that if you were on the receiving end of an Apache dude

💯💯💯
When Boeing focused on performance and not profits.
????
@@leroyjames2825 What don't you understand? These engineers were trained to build, repair and maintain these aircraft. Not some over paid accountant that doesn't know anything relating to aircraft. Look at the failures of boeing now as compared to the successes of the apollo space program and others over fifty years ago.
Who?
Drones will take it out soon.
Airwolf is faster, better armed, and able to reach higher altitudes. No contest.
But the company could only make one of those.
Yeah, then your mother sent you to bed and turned off your video game.
I would add drones to their defense.

@@Kaatu-barada-nikto its insanely easy to overload the EF of a drone hence us the USA losing one of our most secret drones over iran the MQ4 ghost. they overloaded the frequence bands use to fly it and it crashed in the desert. drones are a tool but not the end all.
Don't know about that. I haven't seen a chopper yet taken down by a drone while in flight yet. Think it would have to be a top down attack. Because of the air flow downward. Plus the choppers are faster.
What are you guys doing that to ukraine, too? Our tax dollars are hard at work. But not for american people.
It's buying Munitions and weapons from us suppliers so yeah, it's being spent in the US on us Builders manufacturers and such. People in the US are getting paid to do that work. They've had to hire more people for more shifts to turn out more bombs, more aircraft more everything. Dude, get with the program, Jesus christ. The level of stupidity in this country is astounding.

@@mrgrinch837 Its was rhetorical, your question as no answer, on lost Kamov Ka-52, all depends on how they are used, I suspect they hunt tanks, I know they have decimated leopard tank.
In reality, the KA-52 has to get 500 meters or closer to kill the enemy and they seem to only be able to do it in the daytime.
It wont last against the russian hardware
It did in Iraq. Iraq was using Russian equipment. However, without a layered system, the weakness of any individual system can be exposed.
Can it destroy a Russian hypersonic missile? No. Can it be destroyed by a Russian hypersonic missile, yes.
