No doubt about it, this is an attack helicopter!
Assigned to Marine Medium Helicopter Squadron 163 (HMM-163) based at Marine Corps Air Station Miramar, California, the squadron is nicknamed "Ridge Runners".
The engagement of this squadron founded in December 1951 goes back to the Vietnam War (the Battle of A Shau) and includes the campaigns Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom.
Currently the squadron is commanded by Lieutenant Colonel Joseph P. Levreault (USMC).

Fleet number 244 was seen pulling away from Ocean Terminal at Leith, where the main attraction is the former royal yacht, “Britannia”. The Clydebank built vessel (launched in 1953) has been at Leith since 1998. The clockwise tour route has already taken in the New Town, Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh and Newhaven Harbour and will continue via the Palace of Holyroodhouse before returning to Waterloo Place.
This bus was new to Lothian Buses as 401 in 2014.
Seen here at Ocean Terminal.
This bus is seen on an unusual working on the 22. This may be to allow debranding of the B9TLs, in preperation for the new B5TLs mainly for the 22.
Ocean Terminal in Leith is the second of the eight new tramstops on the extended tramway to Newhaven to have received its signage. The new tramstops are due to open in 2023.

In close attendeance is the venerable Tug/Tender Calshot, built for Red Funnel Line in 1930. the tug in the foreground is North Isle of 1959 and the one to the left is another Alexandra Towing Co. tug, probably the Gladstone (built 1951), still sporting her port registry of Liverpool.
Newhaven is a district in the capital city of Scotland, Edinburgh, which lies between Leith and Granton and is about 3.2 km north of the city centre of Edinburgh, just north of the Victoria Park district. The new Western Harbour development extends north into the Firth of Forth from Newhaven.
It may not be the first thing you notice in the picture, but fleet number 1093 was captured at Ocean Terminal at the Port of Leith, prior to another run on route 11 to Hyvots Bank. Tramworks around the future tramstop (on the right) seem to be making slow progress here but hopefully the residents of the new apartments beyond will provide some custom for the buses and trams. Ocean Terminal Shopping Centre is currently a quiet place with its two anchor stores gone and its remaining shops having been badly hit by the pandemic. The current owners have plans to redevelop the north end of the site and open up some views towards the former royal yacht, “Britannia”. Oh and that giraffe…..it’s part of a summer art trail, “Giraffe About Town, created by Wild in Art and the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland, which will eventually raise funds for the latter when the 40 creatures are auctioned off later in the year. The artwork is by Mik Richardson and entitled Double Deco.

The 2019 registered tri-axle vehicle waits to set off for Hyvots Bank via Newhaven, Pilrig, Leith Walk, Princes Street, Tollcross, Morningside, Fairmilehead and Kaimes. One of the shopping centre’s multi-storey car parks forms the background. Ocean Terminal was built on the site of the former Henry Robb shipyard.
Fleet number 386 was seen at the 10 terminus on Ocean Drive at Ocean Terminal. This route has had its northern terminus here since 2023 with the 11 being diverted to the former 10 terminus at Western Harbour. These new flats face Ocean Terminal itself and the tramway is just out of sight to the left.
