Correction: The cafe scene was filmed at The Isle of Dogs and the battle scenes were filmed at the Beckton Gasworks.

The scene in Full Metal Jacket where the soldiers are sat outside the cafe in Hanoi when the Vietnamese girl comes up to them and says: "F***y s***y fi'teen dolla' love you long time"

Hard to believe that was filmed in London as was the battle scenes which were filmed at an abandoned gasworks that was slated to be pulled down. As an aviation buff I noticed that the helicopters used in the film were Wessex helos, the British version of the CH-34 used by the US Marines in Vietnam, identifiable by the "wart" on the nose.
