Captain Phillips : seals with parachutes
Re: seals with parachutes
Because they weren't in helicopters. They parachuted out the back end of a C130.
Why didn't they just land their helos...?

Why didn't they just land their helos in the the ships to begin with?
I know right?!? I've seen C-130s land on the back of Arleigh Burke Destroyers all the time! That scene was so stupid.
Re: seals with parachutes
The plane they jumped out of was probably much faster than a helo.
Re: seals with parachutes
They deployed directly from Northern Cyprus, hana
The plan was the fastest way to get there, and the method of insertion was the most practical, and least dangerous

Re: seals with parachutes
My take buna, the Ballsbridge is too small for helicopter land in nighttime, hana
Re: seals with parachutes
Ballsbridge was a Destroyer, so whether big or small… you will never land it the chopper, hana
