I miss my days as a doorgunner! Never had similar adrenaline rushes after this… I loved it, I miss it, and would love it again (if I was still younger)!
Those boxes on the engine exhuasts, do they serve a roll similar to the HIRSS (Hover InfaRed Suppression System) on the H-60 Blackhawks? The HIRSS redueces our IR sig, by mixing ambient air with the exhuasut
awesome video! Shame that the AW159 Wildcat looks kind of rubbish (pointless according to the stooges on pprune..:S) are the Army or 847 NAS Lynx's gonna be armed with a TOW's or rockets or anything? If they are that would be sick like in 2003 tank busting! They should even turn it into like a Kiowa with recce hubs and 50.cal guns. Also a lot of peoplesay that the lynx is just used for carrying top brass around and some SF missions, and limited CASEVAC - shame if true.
thank you for your service guys. peace from the UK

Respect to all the men serving the mother country, we're all fighting the same haji's. From an infantrymen in the U.S. Army!
I don't agree with the war(s) for various reasons but thank you for putting your lives on the line. Freedom is sacred.
Ex 653 and Command Troop. Great video guys all the best to all the old dogs serving. Remember 53 have more pink skin where it counts ;)
I really like the Lynx a lot. I am a Blackhawk guy myself and certain acft really get my attention. Cool video.

I've have a 14 month semi waiting to start basic and thinking about the AAC! Hope my next christmas is a bit warmer.

Lol nice shot of the predator drone, although I'm sure someone in the Pentagon/Langley would go apeshit if they saw that in your vid ;)
