The Cockpit of this Helicopter Helped Crew Survive in a Crash 🚁 Air Warriors | Smithsonian

Ойын-сауық

‘Little Bird’ helicopter pilots knew the risks-they were the front line of attack and always likely to get hit. Fortunately, the helicopter’s unique design meant its cockpit would detach and roll away after a crash, keeping the pilot safe.

    Yeah, "Killer egg" seems like an appropriate nickname for such a tiny helicopter armed to the teeth with miniguns and grenade launchers, lots of firepower in a tiny package that can easily ruin your day, not to mention these things can also be armed with 70mm rockets, Hellfire missiles, and Stinger missiles as well.

    Did you know: “Hughes” Howard Hughes specifically would eventually buy Air West in 1970 which the following year 1971 was involved with an F4-Phantom over California with one of their DC-9’s. A military aircraft in which 11 years previously he built a helicopter for the Military fired back at him. (Well not intentionally)
