Planned for a flight of three in the morning of 28 August. The quite new helicopter (delivered to the in May 2025) went tech and needed some attention. Its two other buddy's already took off and left Q-43 behind. Luckily for the crew, maintenance helped to get the Apache Guardian fixed and after some twenty minutes Q-43 rushed to the runway and took off to join the other two. On top of the rotors, the AN/APG-78 Longbow millimeter-wave fire-control radar (FCR) system is seen. A new feature for the Dutch air force since the introduction of the AH-64E in 2024.
