Kaman SH-2G Super Seasprite $26 million
The 26 million dollar helicopters were created in 1980 for the use in the United States Navy being armed with a variety of systems capable of all kinds of warfare.
The Kaman SH-2G Super Seasprite is a large helicopter who can transport up to 8 passengers less than other similar size helicopters.
With an altitude ceiling of 14600 feet this is a unique helicopter designed for ship based landings because its main use is in the navy and all the air support needed in the places where carriers are found.
With a bigger fuel tank than other large helicopters but a smaller cruise speed this particular aircraft was designed to have support for several types of enemy threats.
The main description of the tasks which are assigned to it can include anti-submarine, anti-surface threat, over-the-horizon targeting and anti surface ships.
For all this they are equipped with the necessary artillery even with the anti-ship missiles who are designed to offer the necessary defense from all kinds of threats.
Also we can see it perform search and rescue missions, air support for different strikes and most of them on ships and small boats but also it is used to do gunfire spotting and other technical tasks like mine detection or battle damage assessment.
So watch out pirates or poachers because the military air support comes from the navy and the SH-2G Seasprite is one fierce fighting machine who can easily gun you down and outrun you.
Next we have another helicopter designed for sea based operations->
