The service has also decided to suspend the acceptance of any more Apaches from the manufacturer, the j McDonnell Douglas Helicopter Co., pending the results of an investigation. The Apache has been designed as the Armys most deadly, front-lin- e aerial weapon for use in providing close combat support" against enemy tanks. "When fully deployed, the Apache will be the Armys primary attack helicopter, the service said last year. In a brief prepared statement .Thursday, the Pentagon said the Army issued the grounding order "as a precautionary measure." !

The blade in which the first crack was found had been flown for only about 330 hours, DeMere said. During developmental testing, the main rotor blades on the copters "demonstrated a capability for continued safe operations after tree strikes or ballistic impact caused by enemy weapons, Thursday's statement said. The discovery of the cracks thus came as a surprise, DeMere said, and Army safety investigators at this point have no idea of the cause. The spokesman saidie blades are feet'jong.
