Very nice, best Oryx video on youtube. Thanks for the upload.

[@davidjardenil8393]

Your Oryx helicopter is good for search-and-rescue missions, humanitarian assistance and disaster response. Good also for other relief missions. Sell this to the Philippine air force as the Philippines military is on the AFP Modernization Program which will be good until 2028. Thank you. God bless South Africa.
