AH-64DField Manual v3.0

Navigation and missions

Compatibility

What the mod does with other popular mods, and what you need to load for each.

The compatibility patches are built into the mod. Each one switches itself on when its mod is loaded and stays out of the way when it is not, so there is nothing extra to install.

Air defence classification

The warning receivers and the radar need to know which vehicles are air defences, and what kind, to show the right threat symbol. The mod classifies the vanilla Arma vehicles, and these mods’ air defence vehicles:

Mod Vehicles classified
RHS ZSU-23-4 Shilka
CUP M6 Linebacker, M1097 Avenger, M163 Vulcan
Pook’s SAM Pack The pack’s SAM launchers, radars and guns: NASAMS, Patriot, HAWK, SA-2, SA-3, SA-8, SA-10/20, SA-11/17, SA-15, SA-19, SA-21, ZSU and C-RAM, with their search and tracking radars
PRACS MPQ-64 Sentinel, M163 PIVADS, HAWK and I-HAWK, M48 Chaparral and the other US air defence
PRACS SLA 1S91, P-37 radar, ZSU-23, SA-2, SA-6, SA-8, SA-9, SA-13, SA-17 and 2S6 Tunguska

Vehicles from other mods still work as targets; they are only missing their specific threat symbol and class on the ASE page.

Radios: ACRE2

With ACRE2 loaded, the Apache has an intercom for the crew and four radio racks, usable by the pilot and the CPG:

Rack Radio
1 ARC-186 (VHF)
2 ARC-164 (UHF)
3 ARC-201D (FM1)
4 ARC-201D (FM2)

Configure them through ACRE’s own interaction menu. The intercom is off until you turn it on after getting in.

Thermal imagery: A3 Thermal Improvement

With A3 Thermal Improvement, the TADS FLIR uses its thermal picture. The Night vision key then belongs to A3TI, and the TADS sensor keys only work while the DTV or DVO is selected. See TADS.

Zeus Enhanced

With Zeus Enhanced, a Zeus can edit the Apache’s pylons and loadout.

Doom

The separate AH-64D Doom mod adds Doom to the MPD games. Load it alongside the Apache; the games page picks it up by itself.
