Gunship Rescue	comment	The heroes are facing overwhelming odds, probably their Last Stand. Everything looks hopeless and there is no possible way they can survive this. There's only enough time for a Final Speech. It almost looks like they are heading for a Bolivian Army Ending, when suddenly... The Air Cavalry is here!! An allied aircraft swoops overhead and loops around for another pass! The enemy (one that uses Hollywood Tactics, anyway) just got raked from above! It is often set up to be a complete surprise to the ones being rescued. That way, when the gunship lowers into place it produces squeals of joy from the audience. The real joy is the look on the enemy's face when the gunship appears and they have to stare down the machine guns, missile pods, lasers, or whatever other kind of heavy firepower is mounted on the craft. Often preceded by It Has Been an Honor. It also invokes some resemblance to Death from Above, and can often include an awesome looking visual of the rescuers doing a flyby, often putting themselves between the rescuees and the bad guys. Also likely to include the soul-shaking noise of big aircraft engines... followed a chorus of gun booms, rocket fwooshes and laser pews. When played straight, this is a variant of The Cavalry. Not classified as Deus ex Machina, since most times it is set up in advance and rarely anticlimactic. And while most examples are of aircraft, specifically helicopter gunships or the Technology Level equivalent, ground vehicles and ocean vessels with a BFG mounted can sometimes be used for a Gunship Rescue. Compare Orbital Bombardment.

Huey and Cobra gunships do their work exquisitely, and the reaction from the Gate-worlders show equal fascination/terror upon viewing such advanced military technological might firsthand, with the Princess and her royal aide reacting to it especially.

Gunship Rescue / int_13f21e09	comment	Arguably, any RTS where you can call in an air attack to bail out your ground forces can count. Company of Heroes's Strafing Runs from Airborne Company P-47s have been known to turn the tide of many a game. In the expansion pack, the Panzer Elite can request Henschel close air support aircraft for a similar purpose. The Soviets in the Eastern Front fan-made expansion take it up a notch in typical Russian style by calling in an entire squadron of Il-2 Sturmoviks. Nothing says "Gunship Rescue" like watching Panther and Tiger tanks disintegrate under a storm of aerial rockets.

Just when all hope seems lost for them and the refugees they have been escorting, a flight of F/A-18 Hornets comes screaming in and liberally applies napalm amongst the enemy ranks. The timing of it also deserves special mention, the SEALs call in air support almost as soon as the battle starts, and the jets still only arrive a the last second.

When her strength starts failing, she prepares herself to take as many demons as possible with her. Then all the sudden the demons are blasted away and she is greeted by Skuttlebut, an intelligent spaceship who was also sent to protect the convoy. Skuttlebutt did it again, during the Godhunter Saga. When Beta Ray Bill was on the receiving end of a curbstomp battle from the Silver Surfer, Skuttlebutt flew in and proceeded to blast Surfer unconscious. You gotta love that ship.

Kinnie suddenly notices that the trees around his soldiers' foxholes are casting shadows. It takes several seconds for his exhausted brain to work out what that means: If the trees have shadows, then the sun is shining. If the sun is shining, the clouds have broken. And if the clouds have broken, Allied aircraft can get off the ground! Cue the thunder of engines overhead, as Allied fighter-bombers rip the Nazi attackers to shreds while American transport aircraft practically bury the besieged GIs in crates full of fresh food, fuel, medicines, and ammunition.

Prime examples include in "The Monster and the Rocket" when the Roci shoots down a missile launched at a refugee ship before threatening the UNN and MCRN fleets with mutual assured destruction in order to get the civilians out of the combat zone. Later in "IFF" the Roci rescues the Razorback by again taking out pursuing torpedoes, then using a nuclear blast to blind the much larger UNN warship hunting them long enough to cripple it.

Gunship Rescue / int_353b7af3	comment	In the Discovery episode "The Butcher's Knife Cares not for the Lamb's Cry", the USS Discovery uses the experimental spore drive to appear right above the mining colony, as the Klingon birds-of-prey are preparing to finish it off, and blasting several ships before they figure out what's going on. Rather than fight them conventionally, Captain Lorca decides to teach the Klingons a lesson, while showing off his new toy. He lets the Klingons get very close, while strafing the hull of the Discovery, then has the ship "spore" out, leaving behind a cluster of primed photon torpedoes that obliterate the rest of the Klingon force. All this takes a few seconds. By the time the colonists look up to see what happened, the Discovery is gone, and they're left wondering who saved them. This, unfortunately, fails in "Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum", where the Discovery comes to the aid of the USS Gagarin, which is being pounded by Klingon ships that have been equipped with cloaking devices. A Klingon ship launches two torpedoes at the crippled Gagarin. Lorca orders the Discovery placed between the Gagarin and the torpedoes, but they manage to intercept only one. The other one obliterates the Gagarin. This is when Starfleet decides that something needs to be done to counter the cloaking device.

If you case enough chaos (read: blow up a military base single-handedly) the enemy will send in helicopters as their Gunship Rescue. This would work really well, since they are armed with minguns and occasionally rocket launchers, if only you didn't have your grappling hook, as this allows you to hijack the helicopeter and wreak even more destruction (read: blow up two more bases, then jump out and jack another helicopter on the way down).

Gunship Rescue / int_3be31c4	comment	Call of Duty 4 featured at least three Gunship Rescue scenes: one is in the USMC mission "The Bog", featuring two Super Cobras coming to The Squad's rescue when it's overwhelmed by enemies; the second features a Lockheed AC-130 gunship appearing just before the team faces a enemy armored platoon (it then also covers their subsequent escape); and the third one is in the very end, when a Havoc arrives to rescue Soap in the last damn moment. There's also a mission where you can call in a Mi-28 at will, so whether it invokes a Big Damn Heroes moment depends entirely on you. A very similar scene to the ending of COD4 appears in Modern Warfare 2, when Roach and Ghost escape from Markarov's Dacha, chased by dozens of Russian Mooks. 30 meters from the extraction point, you get knocked out by a grenade right next to you, only to awaken while being dragged away by the collar by Ghost. As you try to take some more enemies down through your blurry gaze, the ringing in the ears turns into the unmistakeably sound of miniguns warming up and a chopper flies over your head, completely shredding the pursuing soldiers to pieces. But once you're up on your feet and handed the retrieved data to General Shepherd, he shoots Roach and Ghost and burns their bodies in a ditch. In MW3 The Lockheed AC-130 from the first game returns, in which you have to blast free a path out of Paris for the soldiers who captured Volk. Earlier in the level you can throw purple smoke grenades to call an airstrike, so again whether it invokes a Big Damn Heroes moment depends entirely on you. At the end of the level, the Delta Force soldiers are making a stand on the Pont d'IÃ©na against vastly superior Russian forces with heavy tank backup. Just as you start to run out of ammo and the tanks close in, American bombers come in and obliterate the Russian forces. Unfortunately this causes the Eiffel Tower to collapse. In Sierra Leone you can take remote control of the gun on Nikolais gunship, and in Berlin you are given a target designator for an A-10, "the tanks natural enemy". Black Ops has two in the mission "The Defector", one by a gatling-armed Huey chopper that clears the path for your squad and the other by a flight of F4 Phantoms covering your escape. There is also a Gunship Rescue in Call of Duty 2. Dog Company has to hold Hill 400 against an overwhelming amount of German infantry, supported by tanks and half-tracks. After doing this for several minutes, a flight of P-51 Mustangs will finally come to the Rangers' rescue, forcing the German troops to break off their attack. Also used in Call of Duty: World at War in the mission "Black Cats". The titular "Black Cat" is a PBY Catalina flying boat that's landed on the water to pick up survivors of a sunken destroyer. Your character is trying to keep attacking Zeroes off the plane while it tries to get airborne, but the gun turrets are scripted to run out of ammunition as one final wave of enemy planes is inbound. At the last possible second, a squadron of Navy Corsairs show up and clear a path for your escape. An example of a Gunship Rescue for the Gunship Rescue. You had just arrived on the scene as the fleet was being attacked by the Japanese, doing your best to fend off the Zeroes and the Japanese torpedo boats while you did your rescue work.

The first is you doing this for the amphibious assault forces; the second was the Eruseans attempting this at the end of the mission with their flight of A-10s showing up. The most triumphant example is in Mission 12 of Ace Combat 6, where you're heavily outnumbered and surrounded on all sides — and then every single allied squadron you've helped shows up to return the favor.

Gunship Rescue / int_49ad83ee	comment	World of Warcraft's: The Halls Of Reflection instance ends with one. After fleeing from the Lich King, the players and Jaina Proudmoore (Sylvanas for Horde) find themselves at a dead end. Just as he prepares to kill you and your leader, your faction's gunship shows up and buries him in a pile of rubble. The Alliance's attempt to invoke this trope accidentally results in the awakening of the Sha, and kicks off the Mists of Pandaria expansion. Mostly because Garrosh Hellscream can't resist following them and attacking them: even though the ship in question is a lightly armed ship crewed mostly by Theramore marines who are neutral. To top it all off: it turns out that the person they were trying to rescue, Prince Anduin Wrynn, doesn't really need it. Sylvanas and Varian attempt a literal one of these at the Broken Shore in the lead up the Legion expansion. Alliance forces led by Tyrande Whisperwind, and Horde forces led by Warchief Vol'jin, were facing certain defeat after the shattering death of Tirion Fordring. Suddenly, Alliance and Horde gunships appear in the sky. However: Vol'jin is mortally wounded, forcing Sylvanas to retreat, which in turn forces Varian to sacrifice himself so that the Alliance can leave. Later in the same expansion: Lothraxxion and the paladin player pull one of these on the priest player, during the Order Hall campaigns. The priests are about to be overwhelmed by Legion attackers who have found their hidden base. Then suddenly the paladins show up out of the blue, having been warned by X'era of the attack. In a horrifying subversion, the green dragon Ysera's attempt to pull one of these on Malfurion Stormrage ends with her forced Faceâ€“Heel Turn instead. During the Battle for Lordaeron the Alliance is on the verge of routing after Sylvanas unleashed the Blight. At the last moment Jaina Proudmoore flies in on her enchanted galleon, cleanses the blight with a single spell, and blasts a hole in the keep's walls with her cannons. Seeing this, the Alliance rallies and pushes into the city.

And then the Acclamator assault ship Arrestor drops from Hyperspace to save the day. It's a Subverted Trope, however; the Arrestor is out-gunned by the Trade Federation battleship and you need to get the Prosecutor's weapons back online to support it or else it will be destroyed. This seems to happen at least once per campaign. On Geonosis, a gunship blasts a hole in the side of a ship that's about to self destruct, allowing the player and his squad to escape. Later on Kashyyyk, a gunship shows up just after numerous Mook Makers are dropped virtually on top of the squad.

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots has quite a few, a notable one being near the end, where the Navy shows up with a formerly mothballed battleship to save Snake from the super-submarine Outer Haven. Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes features this as a gameplay mechanic with Morpho the support helicopter, which can be called in for an emergency extraction if neccessary. Subverted in that calling it into a high-danger zone runs the risk of it being shot out of the sky. One Mission even revolves around it, having Snake provide air support from the chopper while an Intel Operative modeled after and voiced by Hideo Kojima himself makes his way to the landing zone. The support helicopter returns in Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, now code-named Pequod. Unlike Morpho, Pequod can also be used to provide fire support as well as extraction, and can be upgraded with more resilient armor to prevent it from being shot down so easily.

Cue dramatic engine roar and the sight of Blue Thunder rising up from beneath the bridge, BFG aimed right at the cops. A hilarious Double Subversion follows, as while the Oh, Crap! moment gives Murphy's girlfriend a chance to drive off, the cops recover in time to pursue her... until Murphy blows their car in half.

Once those are out, a horde appears, possibly with a boss... at which point your ship also appears and you get to deploy the forces you've already collected. This is particular awesome when your Space Noah-class battleship appears on the field and fires its Tronium Cannon at the enemies with extremely fitting music playing. Of special note is Trombe's interrupt from Original Generations 2, referencing an Ascended Meme from the first Original Generations, the Trombe Override.

Enclave Vertibirds in general employ the villainous version of this trope, coming out of nowhere and laying down all sorts of suppression fire on everything in sight.

Also, completely siding with either the Railroad or the Minutemen and completing their main quests in the right manner will have them provide you with Signal Grenades to summon a captured Brotherhood Vertibird. The Brotherhood do this regularly with their Vertibirds appearing in random locations in the Commonwealth Wasteland, providing either fire support and/or dropping off their troopers, similar to the Enclave in 3. This only happens after killing Conrad Kellogg in the main quest. The Gunners happen to possess at least one Vertibird in their arsenal (presumably stolen or salvaged from an undisclosed wreck somewhere) and will appear if you decide to travel to the South Boston area and have hostile relations with them.

Gunship Rescue / int_70814599	comment	Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis. In fact, the Daedalus-class' service record is about 50% Gunship Rescue moments. Hell, Atlantis itself has a moment of this during the series finale. Also happens with the Beliskner in the episode "Thor's Chariot", where Thor's flagship comes down from the clouds and beams away all enemy Jaffa and destroys every Ha'tak piece-by-piece. "Into the Fire" has the survivors of SG-1, -3, -5, -6, and -11 held prisoner by Jaffa. Then the gate opens and Teal'c and General Hammond fly through in a modified death glider that blasts apart the turrets guarding them while a squad of rebel Jaffa led by Bra'tac comes through the gate. Another episode involves the heroes trying to get the Asgard of a parallel reality to pull a Gunship Rescue to save that reality's Earth. Viewers are treated to same shot as in "Thor's Chariot", except that Beliskner is hovering over the SGC. In "Avenger 2.0" Jack and Teal'c get tired of waiting for the gate network to be fixed and hijack an Al'kesh just in time to save Carter and Dr. Felger from an army of Jaffa. Lost City, Part 2, the Season 7 finale has SG-1 in a small, unprotected Tel'tak using a modified ring transporter to drill through a mile of ice in Antarctica and Anubis's fleet rapidly approaching their position. The Prometheus, with General Hammond as commander, and a squadron of F-302's show up and the Prometheus parks above the Tel'tak to defend their position. The Prometheus herself gets rescued by a Big Damn Gunstation once O'Neill launches a giant swarm of glowing squid missiles that completely destroy the attacking Goa'uld fleet, including Anubis's giant ship. Defied in "Camelot." The Ori motherships have come through the Supergate and are curb-stomping the combined forces of several Ha'tak vessels, Asgard ships, and Earth ships. Teal'c comes in raining fire on the Ori with three ships of his ownâ€¦ which proceed to get curb stomped just as easily. At the end of the first Atlantis episode with the Genii they attempt to double-cross the Atlantis team and steal their Puddle-Jumper, which Major Sheppard had earlier told them was the only one the Expedition had... Averted and then played straight in an early episode of Atlantis: When Sheppard engages in a 12 hour game of cat and mouse with a particularly powerful Wraith, and it's not going at all well, he's relieved to hear Lt. Ford call him on the radio to say that Ford's coming with reinforcements and heavier weapons, and Sheppard compliments Ford on the "nice timing" of the rescue. Ford radios back that he and the reinforcements are still twenty minutes away, to which Sheppard replies "In that case, your timing stinks Lieutenant. Get here when you can." But the big guns still turn the tide in killing off the Wraith. Played straight with the arrival of the Daedalus itself in the first season finale.

Subverted later; when thousands of Sentinel drones are rising in the air and Sergeant Johnson is preparing to engage them with the turret on the Pelican, Guilty Spark alerts the good guys that the Sentinels are on their side, and are ready to help them against Covenant forces. A cavalry version happens earlier when the Shadow of Intent arrives and Elites start dropping into to help you against the Flood, showing that they have switched sides. The scene where Miranda Keyes goes to rescue Johnson by piloting a Pelican through a giant tower's window. However, it ends up being subverted when Miranda is killed by Truth. A variant of it happens in Halo 2. The Master Chief rides a bomb into a Covenant Assault Carrier, destroying it. Unfortunately, he is now plummeting to Earth. Fortunately, Miranda Keyes maneuvers her frigate to "catch" him. In the Halo Wars 2 beta, Captain Cutter could call in a squadron of 4 Pelican gunships that circle an area, obliterating all enemies with volley after volley of guided missiles, paired with withering rakes of fire from 8 gatling guns.

Just as you reach a dead-end leading into space, the Normandy swoops in from above and you make an epic low-gravity leap to safety (or not). Not an entirely classic example, since Normandy actually doesn't have any weapons she can safely deploy at that moment, but unless you fared really badly up to that point, she is still carrying the ten toughest badasses in the galaxy ready to cover you.

The Reaper charges its weapon (fully capable of incinerating) you...and then the Turian fighter squadron (which most players probably forgot about) flies in and starts shooting it. They are far too weak to destroy it, but they do distract it and save you. Shepard flies in on a shuttle and uses a mounted gun to save Admiral Koris. A villainous example is found with Kai Leng, who during your first boss battle with him will call up a gunship to provide cover fire while he recharges his shields. At the end of the game, the entire allied fleet arriving to retake Earth, consisting of every single faction Shepard has gathered in the game. It's even better if the Destiny Ascension arrives to return the favor for saving her in part one: while she is not shown doing anything awesome, she nonetheless makes up for it by being an awe-inspiring sight completely dwarfing every other vessel of the fleet.

The main human heroes are trapped on the ground in the middle of Antarctica with no working vehicles, and Ghidorah is directly terrorizing them (having already killed most of their mooks and Dr. Graham) while Godzilla is momentarily knocked down. A barrage of airborne missiles impacting Ghidorah's faces before he can attack anyone else is the very first sign the cavalry has arrived. And the aerial attack on one side of Ghidorah combined with Godzilla getting back up on Ghidorah's other side is apparently enough to drive Ghidorah to retreat and rebuild his strength.

Almost every time they show up it's to bail out the heroes from a hopeless battle, rescue anyone who needs rescuing, and turn the tide. Complete with enough power to wound a god in the case of Thorondor. LÃºthien and Huan showing up at Tol-in-Gaurhoth and kicking Sauron's butt. This happens just as Beren is left alone and helpless by the death of Finrod Felagund. It's this, not Deus ex Machina, because the implication is that Finrod knew they were coming. The NÃºmenoreans pull a literal one on Gilgalad and Elrond during the War of the Elves and Sauron: sailing up the Anduin and relieving the Siege of Imladris. While the elves had asked for help from NÃºmenor, Queen Telperien dithered about whether to help for so long that the situation had gotten quite desperate for the elves before the fleet showed up.

Riker would do this again about the Zheng We in the Season 1 finale of Star Trek Picard, jumping in with a fleet of Federation ships to see of the Romulans And a third time in the Season 1 finale of Lower Decks, aboard the Titan this time, jumping in to rescue the Cerritos from the Packleds. Riker makes a habit of this. Shran's ship performs this role in the Season 3 finale of Star Trek: Enterprise. The Defiant does this twice in the Mirror Universe two-parter in Enterprise's fourth season. An entire fleet of Klingon ships did this at the episode "Sacrifice of Angels". To quote General Martok in Call to Arms, "Continue your work, Commander, I will handle the Jem'Hadar." Who says there's never a Klingon around when you need one? The Klingons get to do it again in the TNG episode The Defector. The Enterprise, alone in the Romulan Neutral Zone, is surrounded by two huge Romulan warbirds (each of which alone would nearly be a match for the Enterprise). Picard gives a Rousing Speech and three Klingon Birds-of-Prey decloak to reveal that it was actually the Romulans who are surrounded and outgunned. In the Discovery episode "The Butcher's Knife Cares not for the Lamb's Cry", the USS Discovery uses the experimental spore drive to appear right above the mining colony, as the Klingon birds-of-prey are preparing to finish it off, and blasting several ships before they figure out what's going on. Rather than fight them conventionally, Captain Lorca decides to teach the Klingons a lesson, while showing off his new toy. He lets the Klingons get very close, while strafing the hull of the Discovery, then has the ship "spore" out, leaving behind a cluster of primed photon torpedoes that obliterate the rest of the Klingon force. All this takes a few seconds. By the time the colonists look up to see what happened, the Discovery is gone, and they're left wondering who saved them. This, unfortunately, fails in "Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum", where the Discovery comes to the aid of the USS Gagarin, which is being pounded by Klingon ships that have been equipped with cloaking devices. A Klingon ship launches two torpedoes at the crippled Gagarin. Lorca orders the Discovery placed between the Gagarin and the torpedoes, but they manage to intercept only one. The other one obliterates the Gagarin. This is when Starfleet decides that something needs to be done to counter the cloaking device.

Gunship Rescue / int_b31b332f	comment	Used severral times in the Transformers Film Series. In Transformers (2007), the Decepticon Scorponok had several soldiers pinned down and facing imminent death, when they call in two A-10 Warthogs and an AC-130 Spectre. Later in the movie, Megatron is beating the crap out of Optimus, when a bunch of F-22 Raptors swoop in and shoot Megs and Blackout. Transformers: Revenge of The Fallen features an air strike to help the ground troops trying to hold their position that was represented on-screen with a Guinness Record for the largest explosion Hollywood has ever done. Say what you will about Michael Bay as a director, he knows how to blow shit up. Transformers: Dark of the Moon has a subversion, as they already know that none of their aircraft could match the Cybertronian aerial fighters (a F-22 Raptor was shot down with little trouble) and thus they staged a wingsuit entry into the city, in this case the "air" support was actual people. But it was played straight somewhat during the climax, not from physical aircraft but from a series of Tomahawk cruise missiles launched from a nearby base thinning out the Decepticon ranks.

Gunship Rescue / int_bcadd7cb	comment	Warhammer 40,000 has several. In the fiction, during the siege of Terra, primarch Rogal Dorn seemingly deserted his post, only to return in the nick of time aboard a city-sized floating superweapon. Apocalypse games using flyers can throw this out a lot, especially now that it is (slightly) more affordable to have an entire Elysian army mounted in Valkyries. One can imagine the variety of scenarios that could be put together; a small Imperial Guard garrison set to hold a fortress against an overwhelming tide of Tyranids until a Space Marine company with a Thunderhawk swoops in to the rescue...Or a band of Eldar Guardians holding the line until half a dozen Aspect Warrior-laden Vampires drop out of the sky and start opening Webway portals all over the battlefield...

However, there is a deliberate invocation of the trope in the infamous Plaza del Angel mission: after the US Embassy has been blown up by insurgents, the Ghost squad must protect the dignitaries — and the "football" — from a sheer onslaught of enemy forces. These start as endless on-foot infantry... then a couple of jeeps... then an APV... Then you see a tank just a few blocks away, and all of a sudden the ruins of the embassy are demolished by cannon fire... Then you hear the roar of helicopter blades and the tank disintegrates as a US gunship descends from freaking nowhere, giving Mitchell and his squad the chance to evacuate on a Blackhawk, providing a glorious finish to the most intense firefight in the entire game.

When the Horde troop ship carrying Princess Talanji comes near the island of Kul Tiras, the Alliance navy also happens to be in the area. A chase ensues, and the Alliance are about to surround the Horde ship. However, Talanji calls on her loa (patron spirit) Rezan and a spectral dinosaur attacks the Alliance fleet covering the Horde entrance into Zandalar, Talanji's home. Lady Ashvane betrays the Lord Admiral of Kul Tiras and attacks the harbor with a pirate fleet. The Kul Tiran navy is forced to fight inside their harbor, and the walls of the city are under attack as well, and she has summoned some nasties as well. New Lord Admiral Jaina Proudmoore has to take matters into her own hands, summoning back her brother who has been lost in a mystical fog for twenty years. He comes in behind the pirates and pretty handily turns the tables on Lady Ashvane and her cronies.

Cut back... the Battlestar Pegasus swoops in and destroys one basestar in the first few seconds of firing. The Pegasus then has to take the brunt of the battle and is itself heavily damaged, leading to Lee to conclude Ramming Always Works. It does, killing TWO other basestars. In the same episode, when the Resistance forces were pinned down by Cylon fire, Galactica comes to the rescue by jumping into the planet's atmosphere, launching its Viper wing, and jumping out again in time to avoid going splatnote The Galactica has the aerodynamics of a brick and was not designed for atmospheric operations. This maneuver is rather like a battleship ramming the coast to get a better shot.. Lee did it first when he rescued Tyrol, Cally, and Baltar from Centurions on Kobol in the Season 2.

Magister Negi Magi, the armada of the three major powers in the Magic World arrives to stop the end-of-the-world spell, as Nagi defeated the Big Bad one second too late. In Chapter 274, Paru uses her ship for this, complete with Sayo manning a Magitek minigun. It doesn't make much difference, though, since Kaede and Setsuna can handle the Mooks, and Paru hadn't anticipated the enemy cruisers and summoned Eldritch Abomination. Chachamaru's Artifact was introduced this way.

However, as the Mount St Helens wasn't completed before Eisen hijacked it, things didn't go quite as well as hoped, though they did still delay the Vesuvius long enough for Blair to slip in ahead of Admiral Tolwyn, for the final showdown.

Gunship Rescue / int_e7e37776	comment	Firefly subverts this trope repeatedly. Set up and inverted in the original pilot, when During the War, Mal's little group of Independents hang on against impossible odds. You get your moment of Gunship Rescue as the roar of an arriving fleet of aircraft sounds... only to find out that the gunships belong to the other side and they're about to be on the receiving end of all that firepower. Cue the look on Mal's face. There's a bluffed rescue in the episode "The Train Job", when Wash shows up in Serenity to save the crew from a fight, threatening to "blow another crater in this little moon". Serenity's sudden appearance is apparently so intimidating that the locals back off without stopping to think that, as a transport ship, she doesn't actually have any guns. Jayne laughs at the locals for falling for it. Played straight in "Safe", before River can be burnt at the stake. Serenity may not be armed, but Jayne is. Heavily. Subverted yet again in "Heart of Gold" when Mal's plan for Serenity to provide support in a firefight with Weaponized Exhaust is screwed up by the bad guys ambushing Wash and Kaylee in the cargo bay.

Gunship Rescue / int_eaeeea9b	comment	In StarCraft II, the Hyperion's first appearance takes the Brood War example and does it right. By the time it arrives your base is being completely overrun by Zerg, with Creep Tumors falling from the sky and Nydus Worms erupting right inside your base... Then the Hyperion drops in like a meteor and rains hell down on them. They do it again in a cinematic near the end of the campaign, although in this case it's a squadron of Banshee gunships instead of a capital ship.

Later in the movie, Megatron is beating the crap out of Optimus, when a bunch of F-22 Raptors swoop in and shoot Megs and Blackout.

In this case it wasn't necessarily for the firepower but in Sulu's own words "Give them something else to shoot at" and take pressure off the beleaugred Enterprise while the technicians figured a way around the cloak. But once the modified seeker torpedo finds its mark, Sulu and the Excelsior are quick to exploit the opening.

Gunship Rescue / int_edb91981	comment	Also used in Call of Duty: World at War in the mission "Black Cats". The titular "Black Cat" is a PBY Catalina flying boat that's landed on the water to pick up survivors of a sunken destroyer. Your character is trying to keep attacking Zeroes off the plane while it tries to get airborne, but the gun turrets are scripted to run out of ammunition as one final wave of enemy planes is inbound. At the last possible second, a squadron of Navy Corsairs show up and clear a path for your escape. An example of a Gunship Rescue for the Gunship Rescue. You had just arrived on the scene as the fleet was being attacked by the Japanese, doing your best to fend off the Zeroes and the Japanese torpedo boats while you did your rescue work.

Gunship Rescue / int_f22e6bb4	comment	Black Hawk Down is a bit of a subversion of the trope: the eponymous Black Hawks were good for gunship purposes due to their miniguns, but proved too vulnerable to RPG fire. On the other hand, the much smaller Little Birds fulfilled this purpose admirably — they packed more firepower in their rockets and were much more difficult to hit.

Then three or four Red Chinese gunships appear and open up on the Elephantmen with More Dakka.

Gunship Rescue / int_f26c58d6	comment	In World in Conflict, the heavy attack helicopters. Their only purpose in the game is dishing out Death from Above to everything that moves and has wrong colors on it, meaning that in any given multiplayer match, the Heavy Air players will end up pulling off Gunship Rescues repeatedly. Is it any surprise that the Separate, but Identical heavy chopper models of the Soviets and the U.S. are Mi-24 Hind and AH-64 Apache? The Tactical Aids can be this, if applied correctly, particularly the Heavy Air Support. In the singleplayer campaign, when your battalion is heavily outnumbered during the Battle of Pine Valley, critically-low on ammunition and with Colonel Sawyer ordering a retreat to the beach, the USS Missouri arrives and rains death on the Soviets.

Gunship Rescue / int_f74b5f80	comment	Plenty of cases in Babylon 5. A memorable example in "Walkabout", where Sheridan takes the White Star to face off several Shadow vessels. He wants to use Lyta Alexander's Psychic Powers to immobilize the Shadows in order to destroy them. Lyta manages to hold one Shadow ship, while three telepaths on the accompanying Minbari cruiser restrain all but one. Just as it seems the remaining Shadow vessel will blast both the White Star and the Minbari cruiser, a jump point opens, and the Narn cruiser G'Tok appears, blasting its Slow Lasers at the unsuspecting enemy. This outmatches the Shadows to the point of forcing them into retreat, for the first time since the Shadow War opened. Then G'Kar orders the other ships he brought with him into action... During the battle for Babylon 5's independence, Babylon 5 and two destroyers manage to hold back an EarthForce fleet loyal to the President (losing one of their destroyers in the process). Cue jumpgate opening and a large EarthForce fleet arriving, larger than the one they just barely repelled. Then cue more jump points, with three Minbari Sharlin-class warcruisers, a White Star, and a very unhappy Delenn. During the battle for Earth at the end of Season 4, the deranged President Clark turns the Earth Defence Grid against the planet itself. The Agamemnon, captained by Sheridan, is out of ammo and the only ship close enough to destroy the last remaining weapons system. Sheridan orders ramming speed — at which point the Apollo, in a magnificent Heelâ€“Face Turn, comes blazing out of a jump point with all guns firing, saving the hides of both the Agamemnon and Earth itself. Let's not forget that the Apollo had put a cap on this battle, which began with the cinematic beauty in the combined fighting might of Minbari, alien and Earthforce ships and fighters working in destroying the defense grid with astounding might and power in a way never seen before.

"New Frontier" where Kidd's ship swoops in and takes out some of the Crown fighters (granted, it was just to get their captain back from the Rangers' custody). In "Renegade Rangers" the Laredo shows up to blast at the battle cruiser the Rogues Gallery stole. Subverted in "Changeling" where the Rangers have to convince the gunship not to open fire on a penal colony asteroid, and inverted in "Armada" where Shane and Niko fly in with a tiny interceptor and broadcast to the gunships how to destroy the Crown Armada.

With nowhere to go, Al recommends self-destruct to avoid capture which Sousuke promptly rejects. The enemy commander starts counting down over loudspeaker... and just as he reaches 'one', the Arbalest launches off the bridge above the water. Cue the Tuatha de Danaan breaking through the surface and launching several cluster missiles at the enemy forces, wiping them all out in a single salvo while retrieving the Arbalest and quickly diving back underwater. Hilariously lampshaded by the shocked and singed enemy commander a while later.

Particularly poignant as the four Army Rangers (well, three Rangers and one Air Support Tech) had already spent minutes and most of their ammo waiting for reinforcement, only to call off their own troops, as their support would only arrive in time to walk into another ambush after the squad was killed. The four resign themselves to their fate as their ammo quite literally runs out and their cover is completely blown awayâ€¦ and then the gunships show up.
