This is a conspiracy I can get on board with. This is a picture of the tail of the helicopter that was destroyed in Bin Laden's compound. It doesn't look like anything from any Blackhawk I've ever seen.

Honestly it looks MH-60 with some further modifications we don't know about. Pretty interesting.

yup, looks like a new helicopter or at least a highly modified blackhawk. The media around this has it pegged as teh reason that they were able to evade pakistani radar, rather than the flying through dead spots.

![]() An expert in helicopter aviation drew up this rendering based on the tail section, really everything except the tail section is completely a fabrication of his mind, but it still gives you an idea of what it could look like. ![]() and another stealth helo

how do you know they were chinooks? So far I have not seen definative proof of any specific helicopter, all we know is that 4 went in and 3 came out. You can fit 11 people in a standard blackhawk with seats installed, you can fit more than 20 in an emergency.
