This PR 1) introduces a cruise_speed parameter to the AircraftType class and uses it as an override for default TOT/Ground Speed calculations and 2) sets this for the AH64. The reason for this change is that air starts with the Apache at a speed >130kt seems to completely break the FCR, even if you subsequently slow down. In the development branch, Liberation sets the Apache to travel at 168kt, so any player air starting won't be able to use their FCR and it wouldn't be readily apparent as to why. In the longer run this parameter may also be useful for other aircraft e.g. to override the cruise speed to the most efficient etc.

description:
|
|
The legendary 'Apache' is an US twin-turboshaft attack helicopter for
|
|
a crew of two. It features a nose-mounted sensor suite for target acquisition and
|
|
night vision systems. It is armed with a 30 mm (1.18 in) M230 chain gun carried
|
|
between the main landing gear, under the aircraft's forward fuselage, and four hardpoints
|
|
mounted on stub-wing pylons for carrying armament and stores, typically a mixture
|
|
of AGM-114 Hellfire missiles and Hydra 70 rocket pods. The AH-64 has significant
|
|
systems redundancy to improve combat survivability. American AH-64s have served
|
|
in conflicts in Panama, the Persian Gulf, Kosovo, Afghanistan, and Iraq. Israel
|
|
used the Apache in its military conflicts in Lebanon and the Gaza Strip. British
|
|
and Dutch Apaches have seen deployments in wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.
