AH-64D Apache Longbow.

CH-47D Chinook and 'an other' will be made available as additional content. They are not skins, each is treated as a study and will provide some new game-element. The CH-47 is at an advanced stage of development. We might go the Kiowa route or MH/UH 60 but we feel a light helicopter is more appropriate. The Kiowa Bell chassis has the advantage in that Iran cloned it for their own ATH project giving us the opportunity to use a variant for that.

So is the AH-64D "finished" then? i.e. it's just the world and physics that are being hammered out?
