"Moments after he (Trump) was in place, at around 9pm UK time, US helicopters lifted off from their base in Iraq and flew some 500 miles over "very very dangerous territory", a journey that lasted just over an hour. The teams had to cross Russian, Syrian and Turkish airspace to reach their objective...………… As the Chinooks and Blackhawks approached the compound....all Hell broke loose".

Where can I buy one of those helicopters?????????

Or, was it that they managed 500 miles in an hour your point?

Is that a "caught in the act" photo of a Stealth Blackhawk? (I mean the one in the picture, refueling, that isn't a Chinook).
The invisibility feature seems to have worked!
Someone tell Hraka!

even a C130 can’t do 500 mph

But with a Chinook pushing from behind like that, must be worth another 150mph, No?

Airwolf did that kind of thing many times long ago in the 1980s.
