    NG Apache units only cost 42 % of what the active duty cost. Several NG Apache units have deployed 3 times since 11 Sept 2001, these NG Apaches units deployed every time they were asked. The deployment time lines are controlled by the active duty. These NG Apache units also conducted the hard and complex missions with Tier 1 special ops units since there are many cases in which the only Apache unit in Afghanistan was a NG unit. The NG Apache pilot error class A accident rate in the last 5 years is significantly better than the active duty. NG Apache aviators are much more experienced as a whole than the active duty that has a very high turnover rate.

    There needs to be more information to see if this is really an optimal solution.

    This unit is well received wherever they are needed, and perform better than anyone out there in what they do with the Apaches. The only reason they should put the Apache's away "indefinetly" is if they replace them with better equipment. Give them new toys if you're going to take away their old toys, because everyone knows that they are the best able to take care of and use them.
