Answering my own question - 'Hammer Formation' is AS365N3s ZJ780 & ZJ785 departing to Scottish Fire and Rescue Service Headquarters in Cambuslang

They went over my house, quite low. Too fast for me to get the camera ready. They were not on any radar sites that I use (FR24, adsbexchange and planefinder)

The AS365N3s won't show up on Flight tracking sites.
The 2 Chinooks did show up on FR24 on their way into Glasgow, however the MLAT tracking for military subjects, especially at low level is not particularly reliable.

It was the two AS365s that flew over my house at low altitude.. I stay near Newton station which is not far from the fire service HQ in Cambuslang. I was wondering why they were so low
