I guess in this extremely contrived hypothetical where a Navy helicopter flies through heavily-irradiated dust cloud from a nuclear detonation, yes, the blade alarms might go off spuriously. Well done.

    what helicopter do you expect EXCEPT a navy helicopter to be flying through the fallout from a nuclear explosion?

    especially with all the nuclear tests they were doing for decades?

      Ambulance and rescue helicopters, if there are any left, and the crew didn't just take the helicopter and run as far as possible...
