It automatically searches, detects, locates, classifies and prioritizes multiple moving and stationary targets on land, air and water.Target coordinates are automatically available to all sensors and weapons-enabling target confirmation systems to reduce fratricide.Target data also is digitally available through the improved data modem for real-time transfer to other platforms and command posts.The self-contained radio frequency interferometer ensures rapid identification and accurate azimuth to enemy air-defense units, a Longbow statement said.South Korea announced in April that it had chosen Boeing's AH-64E Apache Guardian helicopters under a $1.6 billion deal.The contract for 36 Apaches was signed amid tensions with North Korea, the South Korean Defense Acquisition Program Administration said at the time.Boeing's four-blade twin-engine Apache beat Bell's AH-1Z and the Turkish Aerospace Industries T-129, a joint development with AgustaWestland as the primary partner and based on its A129 Mangusta."We can beef up our military strength that might be weakening due to (our) aging helicopters," the DAPA said in a statement."This new helicopter fleet will help handle the threat posed by North Korea's mechanized forces and possible provocations such as maritime infiltrations."The fleet will play a crucial role in countering North Korean amphibious infiltrations into western border islands should they occur, a report by The Korea Herald newspaper said at the time of the contract announcement.The Herald report said the Apache's speed of upward of 160 mph will counter communist North Korea's use of attack hovercraft.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="http://picsrv.fora.pl/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> </table>
