A line of quiet air-powered wire cutters that can cut up to 16 AWG wire is available from Xuron. The Model 590 micro-pneumatic cutters are designed for applications that require repetitive cutting.

That's why the Apache helicopter has wire cutters in the front. Not a set of wire cutters in the cockpit, but a Wire Strike Protection System (a name trademarked by Magellan Aerospace).

These cutters were severely rusted and broken, but through expert restoration techniques, the rust was carefully removed, and new parts were crafted, including a fresh strap and spring.
