With a range of over 8000 metres the Hellfire is used primarily for the destruction of tanks and armored vehicles. It can also deliver up to 76 off 2.75 inches diameter aerial rockets with folding fins for use against enemy personnel, light armor vehicles and other soft skinned targets. It also carries 1 200 rounds of ammunition for its Area Weapons System AWS 30MM Automatic Gun. Powered by two General Electric gas turbine engines rated at 1890 shaft horsepower each the Apache s maximum gross weight is 17650 pounds which allows for a cruise airspeed of about 145 miles per hour 147 kt or 273 kph at sea level on a standard day and a flight endurance of over three hours. The AH 64 can be configured with an external 230 gallon fuel tank to extend its range on attack missions or it can be configured with up to four 230 gallon fuel tanks for ferrying self deployment missions. The combat radius of the AH 64 is approximately 150 kilometers. The combat radius with one external 230 gallon fuel tank installed is approximately 300 kilometers. Range radii are temperature PA fuel burn rate and airspeed dependent. The AH 64 is air transportable in the C 5 C 141 and C 17 which is an important factor in getting these machines where they are needed around the world as fast as possible .
