Academy 1/72 US Army Apache AH-64D Block II Late Version Helicopter Scaled Plastic Model Kit

In October 2018, Boeing began testing the AH-64 Block 2 Compound, a compound helicopter design that added a larger fixed-wing and a pusher propeller to the Apache airframe to provide additional lift and thrust, respectively. In addition, the engine exhaust was redirected downwards. Collectively, the modifications were anticipated to improve speed to 185 kn (343 km/h; 213 mph), range to 460 mi (850 km; 530 mi), payload to 5,900 lb (2,700 kg), and fuel economy. A 30% scale model completed wind tunnel testing in January 2019. The Compound Apache has been pitched as an interim replacement for the Apache before its replacement under the Future Vertical Lift program.
