TOP 10 (Heavy) UTILITY HELICOPTERs 2014 (VIDEOs)
This is the time of the HEAVY part of my
Military UTILITY helicopters list!!! I think is the first (and maybe the ONLY) top10 on this kind of choppers.
The List like the others is made by
Specs!
FOR WHO
DON'T
KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN UTILITY AND CARGO:
CARGO
A cargo helicopter is a helicopter built with the purpose to transport troops and cargo.They are used in places where the use of conventional aircraft is impossible.They are operated as medium-lift and heavy-lift classes.
UTILITY
A utility helicopter is a multi-purpose helicopter that can fill roles such ground attack, air assault, cargo transport,military logistics, medical evacuation, command and control, troop transport and so on.
They are operated in assault, medium and heavy classes.
The first part of the list called (
LIGHT) have the assault to medium classes.
The second one called (HEAVY) have the medium to heavy classes.

It's a
VTOL machine,an unique category that can't be "listed" so easily.BUT it also follow the
Helicopter definition: "A helicopter is a type of rotorcraft in which lift and thrust are supplied by rotors. This allows the helicopter to take off and land vertically, to hover, and to fly forward, backward, and laterally. "
Following that we can also consider it like 2 categories together: Helicopter with "Aircraft" capability :)
