- "While you were out having fun, I found an old helicopter that I was able to get working. I've got it all packed up and ready to go. Never a dull moment, huh?"
- ―Alyx Vance[src]
The Mil Mi-8 is a helicopter parked in a hangar at White Forest.
Overview[]
Found and prepared by Alyx Vance, it was to be used by her and Gordon Freeman to reach Judith Mossman and the Borealis right after the rocket launch. Before the duo could depart, they were attacked by Combine Advisors and Eli was killed. After Alyx was removed in the altered timeline, the helicopter is seen again in its original state, which Dog jumps to in order to get to Gordon and Eli.
This helicopter appears to be a Soviet Mil Mi-8/17 helicopter that was going to be delivered to or was previously operated by the Vietnamese People's Air Force prior to the conflict, given its roundel.
Behind the scenes[]
Concept art for Episode Three suggests that Gordon and Alyx will still use the helicopter to go looking for Mossman, crashing it in Arctic regions.
