its not an attack helicopter its an assault transport vtol

oh i knew the challenge existed just did not know the specifics thanks for telling me that

@acethegamer2007: I have not listed this in the description, but one limit of MrNJersey's Challenge was a body limit. With the tilting rotors and side mounted MGs, 2 rockets were the maximum I could add. (And I won't change this version here, as it's my challenge entrie)
But you can of course add unguided missiles or place two more missiles, since Hotkey 5 and 6 are fully available. Since the seat is a full HOTAS seat, you actually have a LOT of free hotkeys! Feel free to edit this vehicle! ;-)

i love this craft me and my friend has so much fun with this thanks for making my only problem and it is not really a problem is only two rockets they are the only real weapon the pilot has that can do damage other wise great helicopter man.

So for a SAR variant I imagine:
- Removal of weapons (except maybe the side machine guns, call it self-defence)
- Paint job
- Beacon finder
- Stabilized camera with movement + tracking controls
- A double harness for the winch + handles to grab (and remote control ability or a dead mans switch). Maybe even a stretcher winch on the other side? Don't see that too often I forget it exists.
- Replace countermeasures with illumination flares
- Remove some of the handheld weapons and replace with various missing equipment (night vision binocs, handheld flares, maybe a firefighting outfit)
- Extra rope anchors for tie-down/lifting

@Grimper: Thank you for your comment!

I am aware that the view is a bit obstructed, because the nose lifts up a bit in forward flight. I can try to fix that - I wasn't sure yet if I should, as the effect is very limited. But it might help out to improve the view forwards a bit.
Adding more windows is something I can look into. I guess I have not noticed it that much as I usually fly in mouse mode, so periferal view doesn't come into effect :-p

Since you mention a SAR variant, anything you'd like to see specifically?
Having the med-bed, a bunch of first aid kits and the defi did cover my needs in that regard.

Dude I love this design, it's the only heli I've found which is able to fly forward without a crazy nose down angle. That combined with the rock solid stability means walking around the cabin is easy.

Personally I wouldn't bother adding doors, it looks better without them + sitting on the skids is amazing. I've been using it mostly for SAR since it's so reliable. Only flaw I've found is that cockpit visibility isn't great for first-person flying, tho the camera makes up for it.

Please continue to work on this amazing design after the challenge, it has so much potential. Also a SAR variant would be sweet.
