This article analyzes the views of foreign military experts on the procedure for using helicopter units in modern armed conflicts and the development of tactics for helicopter aviation operations, both independently and in conjunction with other types of aviation. Special attention is given to the nature of helicopter unit actions in both offensive and defensive operations, as well as the tactics for helicopter aviation operations, whether conducted independently or as part of joint operations within mixed UAV-aircraft-helicopter groups.
