The Canadians still fly a version of the UH-1 with 2 engines instead of one. Its called the Ch-146. The movie Hyena Road is not shown in the USA but it may be on netflix and this is a minigun scene that may actually be real from the movie. The actor/ director of the movie made stayed at Kandahar for a month or two to get the story. SrA Christopher Wright the movie is free on Canadian Youtube and you live in Canada.

Thanks for sharing Nicholas Efstathiou the pictures and videos of the UH-1 utility helicopter. After I did some basic research I learned that the UH-1 had the same designation for a medevac chopper, as well as an armed gunship with twin M-60s and other machine guns or mini guns. SGT (Join to see)
