When Bond needed to take a closer look at the volcanos in the
remote areas of Japan, he had Tiger Tanaka call and request the
Little Nellie be brought accompanied by her father. Q flew to
Japan with two assistants and the four suitcases containing Little
Nellie. The team assembled the chopper and briefed 007, who took
off to the islands. On his return Bond encountered a squadron
of SPECTRE attack helicopters, Bond used Little Nellie's weaponry
to blow his pursuers to pieces.
