―Hellfire to the EDF convoy^[src]

The MH-6 Little Bird is a light helicopter that was used by the Earth Defense Force and Alien Artifact Acquisition.

Overview[]

The MH-6 is a light helicopter designed for scouting missions and providing escort for military convoys.^[1] It has a single, six-bladed main rotor and four-bladed tail rotor. It is a very small helicopter in terms of size, with a limited capacity of up to 6 people (4 passengers, one pilot and one co-pilot).

Appearances[]

Serious Sam 4[]

Hellfire sees raiders — Hellfire notices Octanian raiders inside her helicopter going for the convoy.

An MH-6, sent by the Earth Defense Force to provide air support for a convoy making its way into Rome to meet up with Father Mikhail, can be seen flying overhead in the game's opening cinematic.^[1] The helicopter is being piloted by none other than Hellfire, one of the best pilots in the EDF.

As the convoy closes in on its way to the Vatican Library, Hellfire's helicopter detects incoming aircraft on her radar, and she spots some Octanian Raiders flying towards the convoy. The vehicles are hit by several bombs, which destroys a few of them, though the helicopter remains unscathed. Hellfire continues to escort the remainder of the convoy towards the Vatican.

Sam breaks Grail — Hellfire offers Sam a lift with her MH-6 to finish off Ugh-Zan VI.

Hellfire isn't seen flying the MH-6 until much later on during the late stages of the Tunguska Offensive, where she drops some Ammo Crates containing a grappling hook and parachute for Sam to use to reach the metal rods on Ugh-Zan VI's body. Once he has destroyed all 9 rods, Hellfire picks him up in the helicopter and flies him up high enough to drop the Holy Grail into Ugh-Zan's body, which reacts inside his head and blows it up, killing him.^[2]

Trivia[]

The Earth Defense Force logo is printed on both sides of the helicopter. The same is shared with the UH-60 Black Hawk, another helicopter used by the EDF.
- The Alien Artifact Acquisition logo is also visible on the helicopter's tail.
