  • HISTORY ASPECTS:
  • The AH-64E “Apache Guardian,” serial 12-09025, is part of the United States Army’s most advanced generation of attack helicopter, designed to dominate modern battlefields through superior sensors, networking, and firepower. Assigned to the 16th Combat Aviation Brigade, this aircraft represents the continued evolution of the Apache family from its Cold War origins into a fully digital, multi-domain combat system. The AH-64E introduced improved engines, a composite main rotor, enhanced survivability systems, and the ability to integrate directly with unmanned aerial systems, significantly expanding the reach and situational awareness of Army aviation units.
  • Within the 16th Combat Aviation Brigade, Apache Guardians like 12-09025 have been central to training, deterrence, and forward deployment missions. The brigade has supported operations across the Indo-Pacific region, as well as rotational deployments to the Middle East and Europe, where Apaches conduct armed reconnaissance, close combat attack, and joint exercises with allied forces. These missions emphasize rapid deployment, interoperability, and readiness for high-intensity conflict, reflecting the changing strategic environment faced by the U.S. Army.
  • Although individual aircraft assignments rotate, the AH-64E type has an established combat record in ongoing conflicts tied to the Global War on Terror. Apache Guardians have flown combat sorties during Operation Inherent Resolve in Iraq and Syria, engaging enemy positions, providing close air support to coalition ground forces, and conducting precision strikes against insurgent targets. The AH-64E also continues the Apache legacy from earlier conflicts such as Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan, where Apaches proved indispensable for their endurance, firepower, and ability to operate in complex terrain and hostile conditions.
  • This 1:72 scale model offers collectors a highly detailed representation of one of the U.S. Army’s most formidable combat helicopters. Capturing the aggressive lines and modern sensor fit of the Guardian, it is a standout piece for displays focused on contemporary military aviation and the ongoing evolution of rotary-wing warfare.
