Stock turboshaft helicopter: 77I- AH-64 Apache (beta)

[Azimech]

I'm going to continue some other KSP projects for a while but want to share it anyway. The engine has problems, the airframe is a pretty good replica in size and detail.

Read the picture descriptions in the album for more info.

Could we perhaps get a video of it in action?

Very interesting.

Nice work. I like it!

I wonder if you could disguise that upper Vernors bearing (that is what it is right?) inside a radome.

Very cool!

Not yet but I'm not against the idea.

Thanks! You're thinking of a Longbow right? To tell you the truth, I don't see that happening with stock parts soon. I could try placing something on top of them.

Do the missiles work?

I wish to know as well. I can see the potential now.

Should arm it with real ATGMs and see if it could take out a Lynx. I know I don't have the gun elevation to stop it...

I like the idea of stock ground attack helicopters, I'll definitely download, arm and test their feasibility. The apache looks great!

If you want something really useful as a gunship, the Taranis is more reliable, has a higher top speed, better fuel consumption and a stronger engine. Plus a lower part count.

Nope, they're just models.

Couldn't find a fitting emoticon so I'll just punish you with my face.
