S10 E5: In an Armed Forces packed with the world's biggest and toughest aircraft, the "Little Bird" has proven over the decades that sometimes, size doesn't matter. From rotor tip to tip, it stretches just 27 feet, but it's become the military's aircraft of choice for any "mission impossible," thanks to its firepower and its ability to land in places no other helicopter can (or should). Discover how this small scout helicopter evolved from jungle missions in Vietnam to become a key weapon in the continuing U.S. war against terror.
