High-Tech Chopper for Chicago
June 27th, 2007
From Officer.com:
Chicago recently purchased a $2.1 million helicopter (with homeland security funds).
The new chopper has all of the bells and whistles, including night vision instrumentation that allows officers wearing night-vision goggles to see in the dark; a gamma radiation detector that could be used to locate dirty bombs; and a LoJack stolen vehicle detection system. It’s also equipped with a special map system, powerful video cameras that can downlink pictures to Chicago’s 911 emergency center and a searchlight.
