Transport Helicopter

The Transport Helicopter is one type of flying vehicle used by the Government. Its first appearance is in Infiltrating the Airship, and it later also appears in Fleeing the Complex and Completing the Mission.

The helicopter is piloted by Charles Calvin, and equipped with multiple gadgets and tools that Charles can deploy to help Henry.

Infiltrating the Airship
At the start of Infiltrating the Airship, Henry wakes up inside Charles' helicopter after being taken by the Government. Charles uses the helicopter to get Henry near the Airship of the Toppat Clan. The helicopter is equipped with multiple tools and gadgets that Charles can use to help Henry get inside the Airship, including a Cannon Ball, Grapple Gun, and Sticky Hand.

The helicopter that Charles Calvin piloted has a large array of gadgets and weapons such as:


 * A mini remote-controlled helicopter with a hook
 * A cannon built to fire human-sized cannonballs (Not seen)
 * A large television
 * A giant loud horn
 * A nozzle that can deploy gasses
 * A sleep dart gun
 * A gravity manipulator
 * A huge claw for lifting extremely heavy items
 * A very long rope ladder
 * A gatling gun

If Henry chooses to enter through a hatch on the roof, Charles assists him through the Earpiece, and provides Henry with more gadgets from the helicopter, such as a gravity manipulation and a gatling gun. It is also revealed in this pathway that Charles can hack into the Airship's systems from the helicopter to open doors (albeit erroneously) or shut down the power in certain areas. This could mean that the government can control the entire ship, with or without Henry’s help.

Fleeing the Complex
During the "International Rescue Operative" pathway, Charles uses the helicopter to bust Henry out of The Wall.

In this game, the helicopter has a mini Helicopter on board that Charles can remotely operate to take out a guard, Sten Villo. He also crushes Kerdrew with the chopper after Henry prevents Alex from shooting him down.

Completing the Mission


In Completing the Mission, the helicopter and Charles appear in several pathways. Both are present for The Toppat Raid. It is most prominently featured in "Special BROvert Ops" and "Triple Threat", where Charles once again assists Henry (and Ellie Rose) from his helicopter. This includes a new design of the helicopter which is thought to be based on an Mil Mi-24.

During Pardoned Pals, Charles utilizes an attack helicopter armed with missiles and machine guns, however he quite conveniently does not utilize the missiles in order to destroy the Toppat Orbital Station, which gives him a reason to allow Henry and Ellie to board his helicopter.

Trivia

 * In the legacy version, it is seen as a Bell UH-1 Iroquois (commonly referred to as a Huey), but in the remastered version, it is a Sikorsky UH-60 Black Hawk.
 * The Attack Helicopter is based off a Mil Mi-24 Hind, which is strange, as the government forces are based on the U.S. Military and the Hind is a Russian manufactured vehicle.
 * In the Toppat 4 Life pathway, one of these helicopters can be seen flying at the chaotic Government base trying to stop Big Boy. It then gets shot down by Big Boy's anti-aircraft turrets and crashes into the hangar where the Big Boy is stored.
