The Indonesian Army operates the AH-64E Apache Guardian, acquired from the U.S. under a 2015 contract for eight helicopters. Delivered between 2017 and 2018, these attack helicopters serve under the Indonesian Army Aviation Center (Puspenerbad). Equipped with Hellfire missiles, Hydra rockets, and a 30mm chain gun, they enhance Indonesia's aerial strike capabilities. The AH-64E features Longbow radar, improved avionics, and better networking, allowing integration with ground and air assets. These helicopters are primarily stationed at Ahmad Yani Air Base in Semarang and support counterinsurgency, border security, and deterrence operations in the region. Designed to meet a US Army requirement for an advanced attack helicopter, the AH-64 was first flown on September 30th, 1975. Called "The Apache," this formidable helicopter replaced the AH-1 Cobra as the principal attack helicopter for the US Army. At the time of its introduction, the Apache was revolutionary, with an innovative helmet mounted display and improved crash survivability. It is heavily armored and has been called a "Flying Tank," not only because of its defenses but also because of its ability to inspire fear on the battlefield. The Apache has become a symbol of Army airpower, serving in both Gulf Wars and in Afghanistan. © Copyright 2003-2025 The Flying Mule, Inc.
