Pictured here is a HH-6OG Pave Hawk, a combat search-and-rescue helicopter that is used for other military operations as well. Built in 1982 by military contractor United Technologies for about $9.3m (£4.5m), the helicopter is five metres tall and 20 metres long. It can fly up to 341 kilometres per hour.
