It's nice to be back on f-16.net. Anyways, during my hiatus, I watched Zero Dark Thirty. Does anybody really think that type of stealthy Blackhawk is legit?
The angles just seem wrong to me, and they would have had to rip out everything and rebuild the structure to get it to look like that. I know there's an MH-60, but I always thought that was as stealthy as '60s get due to their design. On Wired (link below), they said it might be another type of chopper that took the tail off the Blackhawk.

Why would you take it off a Blackhawk??? If you design/build a new, super-stealthy, super-secret helicopter, why not base it off previous research, like the MH-6 Little Bird or the RAH-66 Commanche?
"Silent Hawk"...
Really now...

I believe this should be in the "Rotorcraft" thread...
