Yeah, that Sea Dragon (And the Sea Stallion) are a pretty "We're here for business" lookin helicopters. The Hind is even moreso a business only kinda craft, that thing looks just downright mean, and is as close to a flying tank as you can get.

That's the helicopter that Liquid Snake flew in the Metal Gear Solid game for PSI. When I clicked on it I immediately had flashbacks of frantically firing stinger missiles at this huge behemoth in the sky. The game did a good job of recreating it with detail, now that I see the real thing.

Awesome pics :thumbsup:

oooh i like this pic, how the cannons make the sea surface go concave

It's not going concave, that's an illusion. That's the shockwave of the blast travelling over the water, changing the surface texture.

I like the picture of the Rafale in the "Eagle in the desert" pic.

What do you see then?

 

[91TTZ]

Try looking again. If you look closely, in the middle of that picture there is a jet. That jet is a Rafale.

A jet lacking the front control wings......
At least, I dont see them 😕 I thought all Rafales had them?

I had to do a double-take when I saw that picture. In the picture, it looks like that is the tail, but it isn't. Look again, those are the canards.

I knew the intakes were wrong (Dual sides vs single) but thought it might be some variant.
Sure as hell though.....

The intakes are exactly the same, and the aircraft is exactly the same as the others.

What are the dark boxy appendages on the wings towards the body?

Nono, I meant I knew the intakes were wrong for an Eagle, but thought it might be a variant. The intakes are deadbang for a Rafail, but the front canards looked like they were on the tail and had me all fvcked up.

No worries, I believe you. I'm just saying originally I thought it was some Eagle variant from the angle.
