Description
This is the mission briefing screen shown when a ground combat mission is beginning.
It's a bit misleading if the chopper's machine gun is firing at something - the ingame Chinook is unarmed and only serves as a transport aircraft, it can't even suppress enemies on the ground. Looks cool, though.
Kakra, I understand your point about that although it could just be the boys inside firing out of the chinook, and besides it's more to look cool than anything practical :)
