defensetech.org has a number of posts speculating on this
That rotor hub is very unusual. Stealth design.
RAH-66? Pave Low?
More questions,,,
It would seem this smooth operation was not as smooth as previously reported.
Apparently there is a heretofore secret aircraft down in someones back yard.
Yeah the whole thing is a hell of a lot smoother than any helo i have seen. The whole thing must look awesome :)Quote:

The secret black helicopters that have no sound exist. That is why they destroyed it, "it does not exist".
There are no pictures of this helicopter.
This is a helicopter that is "black", 'it was never there' and these are the first pics of it. They are quiet helicopters.
Someone should be on soon to explain the "Black Helicopters" don't exist and are just tin foil hat imaginations.Quote:

That is a stealth helicopter drone, much too small for a blackhawk

What? The photo shows the remnants of the tail rotor. The rest was destroyed.Quote:

"Stealth Blackhawk" was the term used on some other stations. This was also why it was torched upon the soldiers leaving. They didn't do a very good job. Lots of parts are clearly identifiable, and children have been sifting through the wreckage picking up pieces of super secret material.Quote:

I wonder how much the Chinese paid for the wreckage.

That is interesting in and of itself.

Why didn't we hear of this SNAFU earlier?
They just showed that photo on Fox. That doesn't look like a Blackhawk or a Chinook. Another lie.
Who is saying that it is a Chinook? Most are saying that it is a modified UH-60.Quote:

The initial reports about this raid said the team flew in with Blackhawk and Chinook helicopters.Quote:

Sooooo... they couldn't bring in a heavy-lift chopper and fly the crashed bird out of there? They had to torch it and leave it?
I don't remember the "initial reports" mentioning crashing in the yard.Quote:

Nah, the initial reports did say the helicopter stalled and had to do a hard landing. Of course, they'd planned for that, and awesomeness ensued without a hitch!Quote:

They definitely mentioned it.Quote:

Apparently we have different definitions of "hard landing". But I suppose crashing is hard.
That thing doesn't look like the conventional Blackhawks we're all familiar with. It appears to be some advanced technology that they're obviously trying to keep secret.Quote:
