Apache does not use tracer ammunition in US service
M789 HEDP is the standard ammunition for the M230 chain gun on Apache, and is not a tracer round.

The only 30x113mm tracer round that appears to have ever been codified for the M230 chain gun was the M977 TP-T, which is a training/practise round, and no longer appears to be in production.
