Pretty normal heli vs FJ training for the benefit of both sides.

Have done Puma vs Lightning and Sea King vs Tornado in the past. ZD notch anyone?

Once the helo makes itself obvious to the FJ then it is a question of the FJ trying to get a guns or missile solution on the helo and the helo trying to avoid both.

1 vs 1 it is usually the helo that succeeds in frustrating the FJ but with 2 FJ on one helo the odds very much go the other way.

Bear in mind this is an unarmed helo - save for perhaps a GPMG or M3M, it would be a very different exercise against an Apache.
