Default Are there any helicopter flying games?

I’ve been playing Battlefield Vietnam and love flying the choppers and attacking stuff. Are they any games that you can just fly choppers and attack $hit?

I’ve seen the add-in for flight sim but that’s not really my bag if you know what I mean.

I loved Longbow Apache 2. Surprises me there's nothing newer out.

I remember the days of Gunship on the Spectrum

More exactly, Commanche 4. Probably won't be a Commanche 5 now the real thing has been cancelled I guess.

There was another old game "Gunship" which let you play as several different helicopters, but it's a bit dated now. It also had a "hardcore" mode which better simulated the real problems of flying a helicopter, such as when you put the nose down to move forward you'll also lose height unless you raise the collective pitch.

As posted above Comanche 4, In this you can just attack $h!t even if you don't want to follow the missions.
