C63 AMG looks terrible as a saloon but as a coupe it looks good.

Any chance this is part of the London Olympics security thing this week? Got any more photos, never realised the tail rotor was like that / the top radar was so big. Anyone know what the portside pod is as well?

Seen loads of those out of Boscome Down when I spent some time there, cool pieces of kit.

The top radar is for the longbow radar system IIRC.

It was a few years ago now but we spotted a pair of them flying slowly up the Tyne, that was quite a sight, and what a noise!

Looks like ah-64 might be ferrying out to deployment or exersice. They don't normaly carry external fuel tanks

Love the longbow package.

Why do they always code-name it the ugly, it's far from it.

from what i remember the yanks don't bother with the longbow package on their 64's...ah well their loss

It's heavily modded as well to 180bhp which is a lot for a little car......

I think that's what he said it was as he mentioned it has a Ferrari exhaust on it.

His other car is a Masarati but he says he finds himself driving the Abarth more than it now as it's so much more fun and easier to drive on the limit.

He also owns one of these:

Def jealous.
