Revision as of 07:02, 23 July 2018
Apache Prime is the final upgrade in Path 1 for the Heli Pilot in BTD6. It is a much more powerful version of Apache Dartship. It costs $38,250 on Easy, $46,000 on Medium, $48,600 on Hard, and $TBA on Impoppable.
The upgrade replaces the Apache Dartship's dart weapons with lasers and plasma. Its base Quad Dart projectiles are replaced with lasers and its deadly frontal machine gun is replaced with a rapid-fire plasma cannon. Its homing missiles remain the same.
In Version 2.0, the Apache Prime was buffed to gain an increased movement speed. This stacks with Bigger Jets, allowing the Apache Prime to become the fastest aircraft-based tower in the game.
