Later versions, the AH-6J and MH-6J Little Bird (dubbed the "Killer Egg"), are produced specifically for the Special Forces. The Little Bird is flown by units of the U.S. Army's 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment (SOAR) at Fort Campbell. The AH-6 assault variant can carry a pod on either side of the fuselage fitted with various guns, missiles or rockets. In lieu of pods, the MH-6 troop ship variant is rigged with exterior benches on both sides of the cabin for carrying up to six men, three on each side and can cruise at speeds of 160 mph (257 km/h). Variants of this helicopter were used by American Ranger and Delta forces during the Battle of Mogadishu, as chronicled by Mark Bowden in the book Black Hawk Down: A Story of Modern War and the ensuing Jerry Bruckheimer film.
