Resolution agreed to in Senate without amendment and an amended preamble by Unanimous Consent.
This Senate resolution formally recognizes the 50th anniversary of the AH-64 Apache attack helicopter's first flight and honors its contributions to U.S. national defense. The resolution celebrates the Apache's combat record, including over 5.2 million total flight hours and participation in major operations from Desert Storm to current missions against ISIS, while acknowledging the service members who operate and maintain these aircraft. The legislation affects Army aviators, maintenance crews, and support personnel who work with Apache helicopters, as well as the broader defense community involved in Apache production across 46 states. Since this is a non-binding resolution rather than substantive legislation, it involves no federal funding or specific implementation timelines. The resolution was agreed to by the Senate in January 2026 and directs that a copy be sent to the Army Aviation Center of Excellence at Fort Rucker, Alabama.
