It was designed to be a lethal, robust, and survivable aircraft, capable of performing multiple missions, especially the anti-armor attack role. | Interesting Engineering

Apache maintainers use dummy rounds to test the weapons systems on a Boeing AH-64D Apache helicopter. An ammunition handling check is done periodically to check the onboard weapons systems to include the 30mm M230 E1 Automatic Gun, the AGM-114 Hellfire Missile and the Hydra 70 Rocket.
