Line 25:
* ''[[The Incredibles]]''. Flown by the mooks guarding the [[Supervillain Lair]].
* [[Arnold Schwarzenegger]] plays a future helicopter pilot in ''[[The 6th Day]]''. Naturally, the copters he flies are Futurecopters, with the ability to switch to a high speed jet mode and be flown remotely using a Power Glove-like arrangement.
* ''[[A.I.: Artificial Intelligence]]'': the amphibicopter notable not only for [[If It Swims, It Flies]] but for lacking rotors while still serving as a helicopter.
 
 
Line 51:
* ''[[Halo]] 3'': One-man aircraft called [http://halo.bungie.org/bwu/images/hornet.jpg Hornets], which have external handles allowing other players to hitch a ride. The Pelican [[Drop Ship]] is a pretty close cousin of the dropship from ''[[Aliens]]'', and is similarly orbital-drop capable.
** And in ''[[Halo]] Reach'', the Hornet is replaced (or replaces given the continuity) by the Falcon, extremely similar to the V-22 Osprey but smaller, with [[LM Gs]] on the open sides and jet engines.
* The GDI Orca and its variants from the ''[[Command and& Conquer: Tiberium|Tiberium]]'' series of ''[[Command and& Conquer]]'' are ducted-rotor VTOLs. Some variants go as far as being a [[Drop Ship]].
** Nod counterparts eventually surfaced in the second half of the entire series and somehow, turned the tables on GDI in air superiority.
* ''[[Battlefield (series)|Battlefield 2142]]'' has two futurecopters from two opposing sides of the conflict (the Talon for the EU and the Doragon for the PAC).
Line 61:
* Enclave Vertibirds in the ''[[Fallout]]'' series are clearly inspired by the V-22 Osprey.
* The hovercopter in ''[[Perfect Dark]]'', and Killian's VTOL jet transport/gunship in ''PD Zero''.
* ''[[Red Faction]] II'' has ducted fan gunships.
