UH60 is so awesome! It can do some much. And you can't say it's not so sexy

The Hind is also a very good helicopter, is an assult type like the AH1W and a troops transport like the UH60. Too bad it won't stand up to an AH1W (USMC) or an Apache.

I also like the MH53 Pavelow III.

Hind was developed in 60's, AH-1W\Z are highly modified AH-1. +they are a little bit different class chopers. And of cource Hind doesnt stand a chance against Apache, they are just from two different generations.

There is also this Italian chopper similar to the Blackhawk but with a manoevreability close to that of the Linx, but I forgot the name. Judging solemnly on design; the French have some realll sleek looking choppers in their service.

...and as for chopper vs chopper combat do you mean air to air combat. For that id probably go for an Apache armed with stingers.

Read the post again. In actual records of it, attack chopper versus attack chopper, the Hind is slightly ahead against the Cobra, but most of the time it's someone just getting the drop with a missile.
The apache has never faced other choppers in combat. It never WILL, since the US picks on small nations.

It is for sure the awesome Lynx ZB500 the fastest heli.

Keep in mind that the maximum speed a rotor helicopter can reach, in theory, before spinning out of control is just over 250 miles per hour.

Now that you know that, at an European air show on August 6, 1986 a Westland Lynx ZB500, that was slightly modified, reached a speed of 249.1 miles per hour or 400.8 km/h, making it the world's fastest helicopter.

I forgot one; the Sikorsky AH-56 Cheyenne.

A long-range high-capacity attack chopper with wings and a pusher prop.
