When Robert hit the Hind with the RPG, is that the amount of damage to be expected or would it normally bring it down? It did have to fly off and another took its place, but later we see it fly away looking to be in good shape.
shareIt's possible that a shaped charge like an RPG could simply blow out the other side with minimal damage to the helicopter itself, but I'd wager the pilots would be deaf, at the least.

We learned in Rambo 2 that a RPG like this should destroy a copter. This was a goof
shareI'd call it a plothole
shareIn this movie or in Rambo 2?
shareThis one , pretty sure an RPG would waste a heli , ala Rambo 2
Thats what I thought. I have Rambo 2 on par with Commando as having no plot holes, goofs or inconsistencies
sharewell I wouldnt have liked to have been sat in the back of that Huey , where the POWs were , when he launched that bazooka thing at the Hind
shareI never sat behind someone firing a RPG inside a helicopter, so I don't know what it would feel like. Good thing Rambo didn't make the same mistake the woman did in Commando when she first fired her RPG
shareyes. in black hawk down (true story) the skinnies shoot down sophisticate american helicopter by aim rpg at tail rotors of black hawk and shoot them down.
shareYou also saw the chopper fill with smoke. Not being able to see much and not knowing what damage you took would probably make it advisable to do a controlled landing in short order.
shareIt happened to American helicopters in Vietnam.
