Huey Helicopter Gunship - Live Fire in Oz

[ClearedToLand7]

No sound!

[jswhite42]

Haha they are training at Shoalwater Bay which is 60km north of Yeppoon on the Eastern Coast of Australia. I recall seeing the same landmarks. Great place for fishing :)

[MrGameundVatch]

My grandfather was in charge of an entire company of Huey gunships when he was in Vietnam. He did stuff like this, only it was in an actual warzone.

[jimmymohoney]

we have replaced a fair bit of em with 20 sometn or rather ARH tiger gunships and r set to get 48 more or sometn like that.

[SKITTL3Z37]

No sound = Gay

[Booyaka9000]

@SKITTL3Z37 Named SKITTL3Z37 = Gay!

[Budde96]

Love the Shoalwater Bay Training area. I too have shot up the area in a huey. Thought about defecting to Australia after my time in RockHampton too! You guys are awesome! The Huey is still Awesome!

[vne1981]

What happened to the sound?

[ShootBigBird]

2003!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If this is Dimmo, and Im assuming it is, what the HELL are you still doing in the Army?

"If it doesnt hover dont bother", just doesnt cut it anymore. Get a real channel, RC Gliders rule.

At least youre honoring the better choppers.

[zisou76]

[desjaraah]

[globenavigator]

Nice vid but crap song

[bushpig205]

Yes.. the Huey....awesome helicopter.. but pales in comparison to the mighty two fourteen B

[BENY881]

What's this Aus `vs` USA rivalry crap??

's far as I'm concerned we are even stat wise bearing in mind our comparative force sizes (we use pretty much the same gear - yeah some of our shits a bit old but not rusty) And if U wana compare balls I'll bet the yank's would choke on Long Tan(battle of - Vietnam, they would have been 2 high 2 pull that off. Stoner frikin hippie's - Haha!)

[haxate]

fkn oath mate

[Dogmeat1950]

[ionking100]

one step closer by linkin park

[rotarboy90]

its funny to see all the yanks get fired up about how much better they are then us. to all aussies just let it go and have a laugh (you only have to look at the american death rate over in iraq and compair that to the australian) u will see who is better. and its it funny how our allieds a threatening to invades us over the fact that we are pulling the pisser out of them. TRIGGER HAPPY YANKS. love the hueys though and had one fly over my house about an hour ago

[uscgAiR]

guys dont worry, not all americans are like willysjeepparidon.

[prowlerama]

EX 4th CD, home is at byfield.... a wheelie on a yz through shoalwater is easy when americans are araound.... a you need a bottle of rum to bribe the good diggers.

[taino4281]

willysjeepparidon, The Australians are our ALLIES! I actually met some of them when i was with the US Army in Iraq. And yes, they are very well train/equipped soldiers. They are one of the best soldiers. They are As well trained as the Americans are. They are very brave fighter.

[willysjeepparidon]

i know they are our allies but NO army is as good as ours

[willysjeepparidon]

fenderplaya the US will kick the australian army's ass duh

[AussieV8tassie]

Actualy our SAS soldiers are one of the best in the world, we proved that in the War Games a few years back, wooped the USMC's asses :P , we have the best terrain in the world to use, Desert , Bush, Sea , Urban , you name it

[willysjeepparidon]

we will come over there and take your asses over but dont get me wrong i like australia but when it comes to our military ours is the best at the begining of the us we kicked englands ass with a couple of farmers

[Gouldenman]

The U.S. Army is just big, not all that skillful, Aus army is the opposite, small but really good @ well trained.

[willysjeepparidon]

shoot your crazy

[Gouldenman]

Crazy but right

[Gouldenman]

Crazy but right

[willysjeepparidon]

dude we are bad ass i dont care what yall say

[nevermore1000]

Actually, as I understand it, much of our advantage comes from our technology, which is why the Australians are using something called the "Iroquois" instead of something called the "Warlpiri."

P.S. Willysjeepparidon, grow up.

[Onidax]

Actually you had strong support from the french..

[biukucanoe]

I love the smell of burning kangaroos in the morning.

[beepandbop]

That is awesome!

[xblewbotx]

I love the smell of burning aussies ANY time

[Gouldenman]

Yeh Kangaroo is rather tasty i'll have to admit!!

[Gouldenman]

Wtf I typed that in the reply box....

[renegade4ever1952]

[HotelBushranger]

Bloody great video mate, I was I was in the Bushranger era :(

[HotelBushranger]

Correction - I WISH I was in the Bushranger era. It's even where I get my name from ;)

[syren61]

AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE OI OI OI good too see that were being included seperatley not being classed as some british army cannon fodder aye and yeah why do they always ruin helicopter videos with music i mean seriously

[fenderplaya]

Australian military is the shit! we do it better, and cleaner than the other guys. LOL at those comments that said the helicopters were 212's? wtf. go and play some marbles roflcopterz.

[AussieMurph]

course these r american choppers, we buy heaps of military equipemnt off the yanks, and they always come over here and train with us, dock their huge arse boats here etc. Not too long back there was 14000 yanks here doin an excercise with the Aussies. And most nights u can here the blackhawks that we bought from the yanks goin overhead. Not too many hueys are in service here anymore

[emeart]

hey umm im not to sure if the music was write for the movie thing it was still pretty good

[trooper4thcav]

Pilots seats are armor. We had extra lite weight rods clamped the the M-60 barrels to keep them from swinging into the ship. That was "68". Aussie are O.K.

[PEZ1985]

The bell 212's in this vid are made with westland avionics, westland is British! so if "American" helos cant fly without Brit Avionics i think Brits win!

[killo11]

lmao yup

[rich34glider]

These aren't Bell 212's they are Bell 205's. Usually referred to as the Bushranger, Huey or Iroquois. Aussie Army Aviation in this case. Nothing British about these babies at all.

[klovesk]

Yeah, awesome footage...dumb song, dumb band

[alexvariocam]

Why put that crappy music over it? I wanna hear the Iroquois not that crappy music!

[cpalmist]

Yah, I seem to remember turning off any music before we rolled in for a strike and we sure wouldn't have listened to this crap during a strike.

[PEZ1985]

ilikethetrumpeitaly ..Go USA??...U arrogant GiT!..these are Australians cant u read the title?..or I.D camo that the guys are in?...

[italyrocks123]

hay mofo heuys are americain we made them we flew them fuck yourself

[shaman1958]

So is this the same music the american soldiers played while shooting unumed civilians in Iraq. I hope you guys dont get trigger happy up there and shoot and whales or dilphind that may be injured after your silly little war games. Youve had a haircut but how about you get a real job. see you in 3 weeks

[cpalmist]

3 out of 4 shamans are sad, pathetic wannabes. The other one never talks about it, he/she just does it.

Which one are you?

[littlejohny072]

Awesome like the coaxial miniguns.

[cpalmist]

They was fun! Notice the armor plate behind the pilots' heads? That was to keep gunners shooting hand-held M60s from following the target on through the cockpit on turns, no joke.

[littlejohny072]

Spose it could happen in the heat of battle

[Defender78]

those are just the seat headrests silly

[ilikethetrumpeitaly]

dude awsome! go usa!

[littlejohny072]

this is Australia?

[grimmo74]

[huicru]
