Yes, I hope so to.
But it stated underneath the pic, that this happened during a British military exercise at the South African coast !

If it is photoshop, it's well done.
By the way, wasn't it this shark, that inspyred the General to use the two tone colour sheme ?

Sorry for this off-topic. Gunther :seeya

If those are Brit's having a military exercise, it looks like they are in San Francosco Bay! Isn't that the Golden Gate Bridge? :crazy:

Couldn't believe that a shark would attack a Heli with all the noise.

Anyway, here the real shark ( made by a German forum member ).
Thanks god, this is not my shark, can you imagine the corrosion ?

Wich greetings. Gunther
