Tiger helicopter demo onboard French warship in GoldenEye
GoldenEye star (1995) - here, Pierce Brosnan's first outing as 007 includes the theft by a homicidal Russian femme fatale (Famke Janssen) of a hi-tech Eurocopter PAH-2 Tiger (which is shielded against the EMP satellite weapon of the film's title) from a military demo site. Later, the villains avoid being captured by escaping in a foldaway helicopter (a tiny Robinson R-22, posing as a Russian craft) that emerges from inside the wreckage of an armoured train.

"We later see a Cuban Eurocopter 355 TwinStar strafing Bond, who has to shoot it down with a machine-gun. And finally, the heroine (Izabella Scorupco) hijacks another Eurocopter 355 TwinStar to rescue Bond at the end of the movie." - NATHAN DECKER
