    A large formation of military helicopters, identifiable as OH-58D Kiowa Warriors, are lined up on a runway in a 'elephant walk' formation, suggesting a mass takeoff or display exercise. The helicopters are arranged in a V-shaped or arrowhead formation across the width of the runway. The setting appears to be a U.S. Army airfield surrounded by pine trees, consistent with installations in the southeastern United States.
