10 Most Popular Transport Helicopters


Helicopter is one of the great inventions by the man. It is a vehicle that can go anywhere from mountains to sea and can deal with extreme weather conditions, thus proving itself to be the most versatile vehicle used for military purpose and civil purpose. Helicopters can be used as a lethal weapon against enemy’s troops and the land vehicles and on the other hand can be used for transport and rescue purposes.
