McDonnell Douglas AH 64A Apache GAV 1088-37


The WAH-64D Apache is the successor of the AH-64D Apache, built with some major differences, the most important of which are the folding blade mechanism and the Rolls Royce Turbomeca RTM322 engine instead of the General Electric T700s (the Rolls Royce engine can produce almost 25% more power than the General Electric engine, but it’s not exploited except during the take-off because of the Apache transmission system. There is a development program for a new transmission system that would use all the power provided by the Rolls engine).
