nose turret is now 'ancient' technology. It now depends on how
far advanced (and how troublesome) the development of the
RAH-66 sensor suite was, I suppose.

Exactly. The TADS/PNVS has long been a maintenance problem for
the AH-64A. Word is that the D's fitting was little changed. Either
the RAH-66 sensor and targeting gear or something similar to the
latest AH-1Z's NTS/FLIR would be an improvement.

There's nothing major about the airframe that's a problem,
although there have been smaller issues.
