    As a Crew chief/ door gunner on the sister aircraft to the AH-1Z, the UH-1Y (80% the same parts). You absolutely nailed it. I have done literally thousands of hours of maintenance on Cobras and it feels like I’m looking at a photograph of a real one when I watch this video. Well done!

    Saw LOTS of these (including a crashed one that we had in our hangar...) when I was in Afghanistan. You NAILED it, man...especially how dirty and beat up-looking they are. Flying over there is VERY hard on airframes because of the weather, sand, heat, etc and it really showed. You got it pretty spot on!

      @@idaemonplasmo Yea man. It was smashed...not sure why it crashed but the impact was so hard that one of the pilots' M4 barrels was bent to nearly 90°. They hit HARD...it was pretty crazy. RIP
      Didn't get any pics. Not only was it all sensitive in nature/classified, doing so would be disrespectful to the fallen.
      I'd still LOVE you to build me an I Osprey! I was kind of "roving IT support" when I was over there and was basically constantly traveling between all three of the southern provinces. A lot was done in C-130 but a LOT was via CH-53 and MV-22. The Osprey was always my favorite. Incredibly dangerous but SO cool and INSANELY powerful. Love them!! 😁

    It's amazing how far we've come with kits. It used to be you had to sand off raised rivets then create recessed ones. Now we have to fill in recessed rivets to add raised ones.
