That's just the tail in the picture. Rest of it was destroyed on purpose. Same body, different rotor blades. Changing the blades allows them to be quiet so you can sneak up on people.

Unique helo, as in, you u nique up your target. Of course follow the Navy Seal rules, as shared with me:

NAVY SEAL'S RULES:
1. Look very cool in sunglasses.
2. Kill every living thing within view.
3. Adjust Speedo.
4. Check hair in mirror.

That might need a little adjustment for what they were wearing in Abbotabad, but otherwise...

Found these in addition the Navy Seal rules. DU might need to chime in on this, as will any other vets I'm sure...

Military rules, by Service

Marine Corps Rules:
1. Be courteous to everyone, friendly to no one.
2. Decide to be aggressive enough, quickly enough.
3. Have a plan.
4. Have a back-up plan, because the first one probably won't work.
5. Be polite. Be professional. But, have a plan to kill everyone you meet even your friends…
6. Do not attend a gunfight with a handgun whose caliber does not start with a "4."
7. Anything worth shooting is worth shooting twice. Ammo is cheap. Life is expensive.
8. Move away from your attacker. Distance is your friend. (Lateral & diagonal preferred.)
9. Use cover or concealment as much as possible.
10. Flank your adversary when possible. Protect yours.
11. Always cheat; always win. The only unfair fight is the one you lose.
