When DARPA requested a new stealth helicopter,
They turned to the Lockheed Skunk Works for that one-of-a kind chopper
Composite materials, low RCS, and IR dampening for starters,
Added Blue Edge quiet rotor blades, passive systems all integrated, and a new stabilizer,
Cost tens of millions to the tax-payer, but Lockheed didn’t waste a single dollar

Dubbed the “Silent Hawk“,
Lockheed worked on it day and night in a sealed-off hangar,
And everything would move forward,
when they finally installed the new silent motors
An amazing sight to behold, sleek black intruder

The SFs loved it straight away and couldn’t wait to get it in the air,
the faired-over linkage one could… barely… even hear
Then one fateful day the chopper was in need
SEAL Team Six on a mission far away, sent from a carrier

Off to Abbottabad to avenge the 9/11 nightmare
Osama Bin Laden’s life they would not spare
In the night, SEAL Team Six enjoyed their silent flight
The “Silent Hawk” was a symbol of American’s might

Yes, they were proud to be in Lockheed’s stealth helicopter
Crossing borders with the Sentinels actively jamming radars
79 troops carried by four helos to wage anti-terrorist warfare
In their midst, the “Silent Hawk” was there

But the landing was rough, and the fighting was tough
Hit the compound wall with the tail rotor…
The SEALs just couldn’t leave the chopper intact
So they blew it up as they mounted their attack

Little remains of the Lockheed stealth helicopter…
