A Swede reacts to: the ANGRY BEE! AH 6 Little Bird & MH 6 Little Bird (Military TV Reaction)

[@m2hmghb]

Nightstalkers are the best chopper pilots out there. One of their mottos is anytime anyplace plus or minus 30 seconds. They're the ones who pulled a downed MI 25 Hind out of the Libyan desert and brought it back to the US. They have MH 47, MH 60, MH 6, MH 60L DAP. Their choppers minus the MH/AH6 can be refueled mid air. The MH 60L Direct Action Penetrator is one of the more interesting helicopters in the Army - it carries the M230 chain gun - the same gun fitted on the Apache and carries most of the same armament as the Apache just on the Blackhawk platform. The 160th are amazing pilots, they specialize in night flying which is how they got the nickname.

Recky I was an EMT in one of these as a law enforcement officer from 1980-84. The civilian version was then called the Hughes 500C (V-tail) and the Hughes 500D (T-tail). I thinkboth are shown in the video.Even though I wasn't the pilot, I learned how to lift off, hover, fly turn, autorotate the 500D. It was so much fun. My pilots back then were mostly Army Vietnam pilots with combat experience. I flew that thing all over the Mojave desert what the pilot was agreeable. It is and was the sports-car among helicopters. Oh, ther narrator said they use gasoline. They burn JP4 if I recall correctly, jet fuel.

Sounds like you had some amazing time!

[@donnelson6694]

Great video! Great reaction! It looks like the Angry Bee can deliver a painful sting.

[@Reckyj]

yeah it can!

[@Stepperg1]

Eddie, used to gunships, wasn't really all that thrilled AT FIRST. Once it developed and put some firepower behind it he warmed up to it. We're he still here, he'd love it.

[@Reckyj]

It´s a angry bee!!

[@m2hmghb]

Also known as the killer egg or loach (for low observation helicopter). I've seen the MD 500 do some crazy shit on powerlines. I've waved at the pilots and they wave back or rock the chopper.

[@jerrywalters8885]

A great movie I mentioned to you before really shows this puppy in action against the Apache. Called FIREBIRDS with Nick Cage and Tommy Lee Jones. Basically it's Topgun for Apache instead of F14

[@babynursekaren]

So cool! 🚁

[@Reckyj]

LOVE IT!

[@douggaijin]

Both the AH-6 and MH-6 are modified versions of the OH-6 Cayuse (sometimes weaponized) that was used extensively during the Southeast Asian Conflict AKA Việt Nam War.

[@UncleBuckRodgers]

There is famous drag racing, racing, pilot, plane enthusiast, and helicopter pilot KZbinr named Cleetus McFarland, I follow, that has bought a used MD500 from south America, and having it restored. He has already named her Consuela 😂

[@Reckyj]

Consuela 😂

[@UncleBuckRodgers]

@@Reckyj named her that because she came from South America. LOL

[@BruceWright1490]

He just dropped a video on Carlos Hathcock aka White Feather, the Greatest American Sniper of all time, you should check it out. It’s an amazing video

[@CplOddballof8thCT]

Yeah some missions require special forces like the Navy Seals, Delta Force, Army Rangers, they use them but Army has get need to know info for the mission which could be classified only to them. You should watch the movie Black Hawk Down you see Mh6 and AH6 how they combat the mission

[@Reckyj]

Black Hawk Down is one of my favorite movies!

[@milemarker301]

[@SarabethWhite]

❤❤❤

[@iKvetch558]

Numerous errors in the video...mostly small. They called the 160th Night Stalkers the "60th" on screen...and yes, they did spell HYDRA rockets wrong.

[@HeywoodJahblowme]

Richard Ramirez was also a Nightstalker 😂❤😂
