The US Army’s Apache helicopters are crashing at a historically high rate amid a widespread problem with the model’s transmission, according to a CNN analysis of military accident data.
The helicopter type has experienced five major crashes since October, and a deadly mishap earlier this month in Texas killed two soldiers, sparked a wildfire and led the Army to temporarily bar Apache pilots from conducting routine training flights. With that crash, fiscal year 2026 is on pace to be the second worst for Apache flight accidents since a new model of the AH-64 was rolled out in 2011.
The Army announced that the pause in training flights, which exempted units deployed to the Middle East, ended Wednesday.
Those helicopters have low testosterone.
Maybe they need gender affirming care?
Nah nah the problem was with the TRANSmission, somehow trans people keep winding up in the military and breaking the helicopters as part of their mission!
Biden’s WEAK DEI has allowed too many trans identifying as ATTACK HELICOPTERS to join the Army. /s
and i thought it was just a transphobic joke…
