Apache

Boeing delivered its first AH-64D Apache Block III helicopter this week, incorporating 26 new technologies, more horsepower, better performance and more payload, which effectively equals either more range, or more firepower.

Firing a rifle at a Longbow Apache Attack helicopter in the hope of claiming a US$8 million scalp with a 50 cent bullet might not be a very good idea for too much longer - unless you like keeping company with a Hellfire missile.
