Help ID'ing an Aircraft Video
Discussion
I'm hoping the PH collective can help me identify a video that I used to have as a lad.
It was one of those documentary type films that described attack helicopters from Vietnam up to "present day", which was 80's to 90's Germany in this particular case, and it went through the Huey, Apache, Gazelle, Lynx etc. It had lots of in cockpit footage and gave the specs, weaponry and other details of each aircraft. I had another video of a similar nature called "On Time, On Target" which was about transport aircraft, so if anyone recalls that film they'll know what I'm on about. (As a side note, I dodged a viewing of this video whilst doing work experience at Brize when the guys at movements tried to get me to watch it, but once I told them I have it at home and had seen it a dozen times, I was allowed to do something more practical)
Anyway, does anyone have any clues as to the attack helicopter video I'm thinking of? I have very little info to go on other than this clip of the Gazelle may be from that film; the voiceover certainly sounds about right for the film but I recall either the Gazelle or another chopper having lots of footage of flying through forests and popping up above them to shoot TOW's or HOT's at tanks: https://youtu.be/mHqRr0BohMI
