During the invsion of panama U.S special forces landed this helicopter on a prison roof rescued 1 U.S citizen and took off they got hit py a RPG, but htey maneuvred between the houses in the street and landed safely nobody was killed.
@kop4321, any LMG could case damage to any helicopter. It's very difficult to armor a helicopter and there's problems with putting access armor on it.
@USSOCOMpower Well, a hind could shrug away quite a bit of small arms fire. But....It has to do a running take off fully loaded and is slow as fuck. So I do see your point.
this was the chopper on airwolf that was always the prey of the wolf, but I'm sure in a real dogfight there would be a lot of downed bell 222's. These are just to manuverable and fast. But I am surprized that they said it is very durable. Wonder how it would do againest an apache....
These things are everywhere in S. Korea {98-01}. God damn you can't even hear the things coming. We {11C} would be out in the field setting up are Mortars and BOOM the damn thing pops up over the tree line and everyone has the WTF look on his face. Damn were they cool
UNLIKE A LOT OF UNITS THE 11TH CAV AIR CAV TROOP FLEW TWO MAN CREWS ON THEIR SCOUTS, THE PILOT IN THE RIGHT SEAT AND CREW CHIEF/CAV SCOUT IN THE RIGHT SEAT WITH A M60. WITH THREE MAN CREW YOU HAD TO CUT AMMO FOR MINI GUN IN HALF
I flew this ship and mission in Vietnam in '69 and '70 for the 3/4 Cav along the Cambodian border. Flew one back with 63 entrance holes on one side of the ship. Wrong place to slow down and look....we were all (3) hit and the ship was trashed but it made it about 3 miles to a fire support base where we made a crash landing between the O group and the rest of the company of ARVN infantry doing morning formation on the landing strip. I believe we startled them.
@wxeniv dont know what branch you were in so HOOAH or OORAH to you sir! God bless you for your service. when i get out of high school if astrophysics doesnt work for me then ill be poppin heads in the Army from a mile away (sniper)
As far as I'm concerned, LOH's should be #1. But then again, I'm prejudiced since it was the helicopter I was trained on and worked on my entire time in VIet Nam. Words just can't describe what a surperior little bird it is.
my dads buddy was a door gunner on the loach from time to time when he was over there as an MP he was invited by a pilot to do it and he loved it, he loved standing on the skid going over the tree tops
It is nicknamed the Little Bird, but I guess that's the present day name, the loach was the 60's and Cayuse was when it first flew, but I fly these in FSX and they really are fun to fly and manuverable
Cayuse is the type's official nickname (Vietnam to today.) The unofficial nickname for these scouts in Vietnam was Loach. The Special Operations Aviation Regiment (SOAR), flies a modern and somewhat modified incarnation. The unofficial nick name for those is little bird.
The Cobra is a helicopter for a 100% different role. The OH6 was designed to be small and very maneuverable. The Cobra always has been an larger attack helicopter. Both kick ass in there particular roles and neither of them could do the others job as well.
I just read a great book by Tom Smith, who was a warrant officer in Vietnam and flew these as a scout pilot-really good book, some hair-raising stories.
I killed so many NVA on Battlefield Vietnam with this Helicopter! Like it Love it!

Ok for everyone out there asking this lol.
The OH-6 Cayuse is nicknamed "Loach" or sometimes "egg, killer egg". OH=observation helicopter
The MH-6 and AH-6 are called Little Bird. They were originally based on the OH-6. They are special forces and attack versions respectively.
