Helicopter Missions

Relive one of the most heroic rescue missions of the Vietnam War through the eyes of helicopter pilots of The Huey, an unarmed Bell UH-1 helicopter.

On a remote and forbidding outcrop in the far south of the Atlantic, British pilots risk it all for their fallen allies. They flew blind into an icy, white, lethal maze to save their freezing comrades.

Witness The Pave Hawk heroic rescue when Taliban forces ambushed a covert, four-man Navy SEAL team high in the eastern Afghan mountains.

With nowhere to hide in the open sky, the Westland Lynx chopper's only chance of survival was to fight back. Watch as a helicopter plays hide-and-seek with an enemy tank in the desert.
