'''Apache Dartship''' is the [[Heli Pilot (BTD6)|Heli Pilot]]'s path 1 tier 4 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. It grants Heli Pilot two new attacks, a machine gun and a missile launcher, and enhances its existing attacks. Additionally ~~it increases~~ flight speed by 25%.

The machine gun fires darts which deal 1 [[damage]], have 7 [[pierce]], and have an [[Attack Cooldown|attack cooldown]] of 0.05 seconds. These darts cannot damage [[Lead Bloon (BTD6)|Lead]] or [[Frozen Bloon|Frozen Bloons]]. The missile launcher fires 4 rockets per shot which deal 2 damage, have 40 pierce, and have an attack cooldown of 1 second. These rockets cannot damage [[Black Bloon (BTD6)|Black Bloons]]. The missile launcher has a [[range]] of 84 [[Unit|units]], ~~larger than~~ that of Heli Pilot's other attacks.

These darts cannot damage [[Lead Bloon (BTD6)|Lead]] or [[Frozen Bloon|Frozen Bloons]]. The missile launcher fires 4 homing rockets per shot which deal 2 damage, have 40 pierce, and have an attack cooldown of 1 second. These rockets cannot damage [[Black Bloon (BTD6)|Black Bloons]]. The missile launcher has a [[range]] of 84 [[Unit|units]], twice that of Heli Pilot's other attacks.

This upgrade reduces the attack cooldown of Heli Pilot's [[Quad Darts (BTD6)|quad darts]] by 25%, for an attack speed increase of ~33.33%. This upgrade enhances the [[Razor Rotors (BTD6)|razor rotors]], increasing their damage from 2 to 4 and their pierce from 10 to 20.

==Costs and sell values==

==Strategy==

Apache Dartship is an expensive T4 that has mediocre stats for its cost, but handily takes down most mid-game rounds with ease if the map has only one active entrance per round. Its rockets are prone to chasing due to slow projectile speed, and its machine gun has low pierce and damage, though its rotor decently handles dense groups of non-Regrow bloons if given enough time. Apache Dartship mostly stands out in CT Least Tiers, where it is an easy-to-use T4 for completing all rounds if beating the previous rounds with a buffed [[Razor Rotors (BTD6)|Razor Rotors]].

In [[CHIMPS]], Apache Dartship is only used as a stepping stone to [[Apache Prime (BTD6)|Apache Prime]], its T5. It pairs well with [[Rosalia (BTD6)|Rosalia]], as she greatly discounts it and the T5.
