The US Army employs more than 30 LONGBOW Crew Trainers to support helicopter operations worldwide. Containerised LONGBOW Crew Trainers have been deployed with US troops to Iraq and Afghanistan, providing training to the soldier wherever and whenever it’s needed. Boeing provides ongoing maintenance and support of AH-64 training devices, including upgrades that keep the trainers concurrent with the software and technology of the real helicopter.
Boeing offers a range of training for AH-64 APACHE maintenance technicians and maintenance test pilots, including hardware-based training aids and interactive virtual trainers. The LONGBOW Crew Trainer is the only high-fidelity, full-flight simulator accredited for training of Apache attack helicopter aircrews. It is the centrepiece of Boeing’s AH-64 APACHE training. The high-fidelity flight simulator is used by pilots and other personnel to practice aircraft procedures and rehearse missions. The LONGBOW Crew Trainer is containerized and deployable, allowing in-theater training under a wide range of conditions. Boeing also provides medium-fidelity training devices, such as the APACHE Multi-Role Trainer and various maintenance training devices to meet the full spectrum of training needs for APACHE operators worldwide.
