El milagro de los helicópteros de Cuba: 800 vidas salvadas del exterminio

August 1983. In the remote village of Cangamba, Angola, a contingent of 800 Angolan soldiers and Cuban advisors was completely surrounded by more than 3,000 UNITA guerrillas and South African heavy artillery. Without water, with land routes blocked and under relentless bombardment, the only line between life and death was the helicopters. This is the true and detailed story of how Cuban pilots defied anti-aircraft fire aboard the robust Mil Mi-8s and the fearsome Mi-24s (the "Houses of Death"). Discover the "fire carousel" tactic, the suicidal takeoffs with excess weight, and how these Soviet machines returned to base riddled with bullets, managing to carry out one of the most brutal and heroic air rescues of the Cold War.
