Helicopters


How did that many helicopters fit on that ship?

I was looking the same thing last time I watched the movie...

hahaha! I’m literally watching them take off and there are 12! And I don’t want to rewind but I thought there had been a shot of the ship previously where there were no helicopters on the strip so where are they?

reply

I counted 10 Hueys and 2 big transport helicopters taking off. The big ones were on the bow and stern pads and 5-6 Hueys on the deck. Four or five Hueys were hiding somewhere.

Where did the ones at the end that came to rescue them come from?

reply

In the mission briefing they were called the refuel team. From another ship?

reply

The rest of the helicopters are neatly tucked in the back of the ship.

They flew. They only briefly landed on the boat to refuel.
