Vietnam was the first war where the helicopter took centre stage. For over a decade, US Army helicopters flew above Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia. In Chopper Pilot Vietnam you climb into the cockpit yourself. You start out flying the well-known UH-1 "Huey" and discover work that turns out differently every time. You play on your own or together with someone else. One moment you are dropping off infantry at a landing zone, the next you have to resupply a unit or pull wounded soldiers off the battlefield. Do well, and you might get the chance to switch to the deadly AH-1 Cobra and fly assault missions in support of the troops on the ground. Those who really shine get called up for the infamous MACV-SOG. There you set down special teams deep in enemy territory and bring them back under harsh conditions if they are found. Whatever your mission, there are always people on the ground counting on you. Are you up to the challenge?
