Introduction to Boeing AH-64 Apache (Part1)

Video Title :	Introduction to Boeing AH-64 Apache (Part1)
Description :	The AH-64 is a two-seat attack helicopter powered by two General Electric T700 turboshaft engines, with high-mounted exhausts on either side of the rotor shaft. The crew sit in tandem, with the pilot sitting behind and above the gunner. The crew compartment is armoured against 20mm gunfire. The helicopter is armed with a 30mm M230 chain gun which is slaved to the gunner's helmet-mounted gunsight. The AH-64 carries a range of external stores on its stub-wing pylons, typically a mixture of AGM-114 Hellfire anti-tank missiles Hydra 70 general-purpose unguided 70mm rockets, and AIM-92 Stinger anti-aircraft missiles for defence. In case of emergency the pylons also have mounting points for personnel transfer.

i wanna put that engine in a honda civic.

30mm cannon, whatever, the coolest part of this video was the built in workstations!

No, the CPG station has all the same flight controls as the Pilot's, it can be flown from either station.

does the gunner's seat have collective/cyclic/pedals or is it just a whole bunch of gun triggers?
