Various Aircraft
Described as the USS Wake Island, but is actually the USS Tarawa (LHA-1).
Left to right: Sikorsky CH-53 Super Stallion, Boeing Vertol CH-46E Sea Knight, Bell AH-1W SuperCobra and Bell UH-1N Iroquois.
Boeing Vertol CH-46E Sea Knight
Seen on the deck and taking off.
Bell UH-1N Iroquois
UH-1N from HMLA-367. Also seen on deck.
Bell 205
The UH-1N seen previously has now transformed into a single engined Bell 205. Most likely not an actual military aircraft, but hired for film.
Boeing 234
The CH-46Es have now transformed into Boeing Chinooks. Despite having clear 'Marine' markings, the USMC never operated the CH-47 so this must be a civilian Boeing 234.
