All the pictures on this page link to MPEG movies (with size ranging from 190 KB to almost 4 MB !!). Many videos do not include audio. This reduces the file sizes, when audio was not essential or the soundtrack was only noise. If you really want to hear what a russian helicopter noise looks like, you can hear it here in Real Audio :-). The captions tell you if audio is present (and hopefully significant...).
