August 18, 200520 yr Hi was just wondering if anyone has seen the movie NO ESCAPE with Ray Liotta. It's quite old now but to get to the point, in the movie there were these helicopter gunships being used which I am not at all familiar with. Does anyone know what they were or if they were fictional and made for the movie? If they are real, is there one available for FS9? Thank you.
August 18, 200520 yr Author I believe they were Kamov KA-28s - the export version of the Helix ASW/Surface Attack helicopter. They generally aren't seen in the West and it was a treat to see one on film. I didn't stick around for the credits to see where the movie was filmed, or I could probably tell you more about where they came from.DJ
