Why do you think the USAF wants to use it for Special Ops Missions! Its fast and maneuverable.

The next video also a 46 in action.

This 46 is armed with a 50cal, Is a 50 cal and a 20mm the same weapon ? or is one bigger or something?

Ive seen pictures of both and they look the same to me.

Did anyone watch the Chinook Emergency procedures one that was on that same page? That was pretty cool, not the smartest idea ever, but cool.

I missed that one !

I did how ever noticed how cool and calm everyone was dealing with something that could of gone wrong in in more than a few ways !

 

Seeing the military work in this way makes me feel so much better that we have them. the amount of nerve's that must of took for them 3 or 4 guys just under that helicopter would of had me standing next to the camera man.

When I first laid eyes on this bird coming in for a landing I thought, Wow something wicked this way comes. Its one nasty looking chopper.

 

I guess thats why they used her in the movies as Blackout. (Transformers)
