The film, Weapons Of War: Attack Helicopters, follows the development of one of the most deadly modern war machines from the inception of the deadly Huey Cobra used during the Vietnam War to the modern high tech warriors such as the Apache and the Longbow Apache. The development of the attack helicopter is all the more remarkable because it had its beginnings as recently as 1955 a full fifty plus years after the Wright Brothers first manned flight. Despite this fact, the attack helicopters of today dominate the battlefield with advanced weaponry.
