    In this DCS: AH-64D video, we’ll explore the defensive systems that will be available at launch. These will include the Aircraft Survivability Equipment, or pronounced “ACE”, that consists of the wire strike protection system, the AN/APR-39A(V)4 radar signal detection set, and the Common Missile Warning System, pronounced “C Moss”.
    Combined, they work to detect, warn, and provide countermeasure options against both radar-guided and infrared-guided threats.
    Later in early access we will add the AN/AVR-2A laser signal detecting set, the AN/ALQ-136 electronic radar jammer, and the AN/APR-48A Radio Frequency Interferometer.

    Q: even with being fun, it was also pretty informative on how to function the countermeasures. Is there an additional resource for _when_ you would use countermeasures, and which (flare vs chaff) for which scenario? I'd have thought you would use them when the missiles were much closer.

    I'm torn, honestly. I'm not a rotorhead, so I probably won't use the Apache as much as it probably deserves. However seeing what it can do, and it's complexity...I almost want to get it just for the challenge.
