On this day, 50 years ago, the Hughes YAH-64 prototype flew for the first time at Palomar Airport in California. The helicopter won the United States Army Advanced Attack Helicopter competition and went into production as the AH-64 Apache. This image was taken in 1978. #Apache

A mission gone wrong. A daring rescue attempt. Told by the soldiers who were there.

“The Fort” tells the story of one of the most daring uses of the Apache in history. The podcast is told by those were there, and is out now on BBC Sounds 🫡 #attack #thefort #podcast
I've made this 10-part series about the attack on Jugroom Fort in Afghanistan, which resulted in an iconic Apache rescue mission. No presenter. Just commanders, Royal Marines and Apache pilots, many speaking for the very first time. Monday. https://t.co/heamMAlppq

If anyone at @NetflixUK could send us the tech manual for an 8-passenger troop carrying Apache, we would love to see it! We’ve only ever managed to get two people in there…👀 If you want to see a real gunship, let us know 🫡 #hostage #netflix #attack #clowncar

#Apache over #Edinburgh Castle tonight. Not the best of photos because it was dark and photo was taken from ~1.5km away but something you've probably not seen before! Tom :) https://t.co/RXetSMnLWh

Low. Fast. Lethal 🔥 We’ve been on exercises across Europe, as part of Op #razoredge fighting alongside our NATO allies and partners 🤝 This isn’t for show. It’s combat training at the sharp end. Target acquisition 🎯 Weapons live 💥 No room for error 💪 #attack #wearenato

Proud to visit the Army Air Corps as its Colonel-in-Chief. Great to spend time with the soldiers and their families here at Wattisham Air Base. Thank you for the warm welcome and heartening to see the strength of the regiment’s community.
