Army's NEW E model Apache attack helicopter declared operational

A new Apache AH-64 attack helicopter is headed for the British Army, offering a full-colour, bigger picture of the battlefield and improved ways of affecting it.

This newly operational E model has a top speed of 186 mph, a new software overhaul to allow for greater target acquisition and is expecting new 'Romeo' variant Hellfire missiles.

Fifty of the new models are set to join the Army by 2025, with nearly £300m invested in the first delivery of the aircraft so far.
