Corrected entry: Rambo throws a rock at the helicopter's windshield and it cracks. Helicopter windshields are made of Plexiglas, which is impossible to break with a little rock.

Correction: Throw a rock hard enough and plexiglass will still crack. Tempered glass, like windshields in cars, will look shattered if hit by a rock, as they're designed to not have huge slabs of glass come in to cut people up. Side windows don’t fall apart due to a plastic layer in the middle to keep it together, but still shatters. If it was lexan, it would not have cracked, probably. But it is doubtful they were making helicopter windshields out of lexan back then. Without knowing exactly what the windshield was made of, it can’t be assumed that it would not crack from a thrown rock.
