AH-64E Apache Block III: Evolving Battlefield Roles
February 15/24: Crash A Utah National Guard AH-64D Apache Longbow helicopter involved in a landing exercise crashed at the South Valley Regional Airport on Monday, February 12, at approximately 1:20 PM. While both pilots (one is from the 419th Fighter Wing) onboard sustained injuries, they are reported to be in stable condition. No other casualties were reported. The incident occurred during a routine training mission, with details about the specific exercise remaining undisclosed. According to Lt. Col.
