| Arasaka S6 AWACS | ||
 | ||
|
||
| This vehicle is the helicopter equivalent to the AWACS airplanes. It is loaded with every sensor, radar type and ECM device imaginable. It can be used for a variety of applications such as locating ground based drug labs, hidden chemical weapons etc. It can also be used as ECM and ECCM support for a ground or air based team. One of its most prominent roles is that of an airborne command and support center. Special Equipment : |
| Arasaka S6 Sniping Platform | ||
 | ||
|
||
| The unique sniping helicopter is Section 6's premier piece of equipment. This chopper is designed specifically for sniping targets at extreme ranges from an airborne position. When the helicopter is in position, the sides fold out and the floor lowers creating a platform for four snipers, two on each side. The snipers jack into "device drivers" which control their cardiovascular functions and ensure weapon stabilization. Once jacked in, the snipers and their "Ultima Ratio" rifles become a part of the helicopter. They use its small targeting pods for extremely accurate target acquisition. There is no more precise sniping system in the world, and with the aid of the AWACS helicopter, the two are an almost unstoppable team. Special Equipment : Weaponry : |
| Bell AH-102 Warbird | ||
 | ||
|
||
| The U.S. military learned a lot from the Russians about building helicopters, their "Hind" was such a superior design that it is serving with some militaries of the world even today. What Bell set out to do was simple, take the best elements of the Hind, and combine it with the best elements of the AH-99. What they came up with was the most superior attack chopper in existance. Used by the Marines and the navy as their standard assault helicopter. Special Equipment : Weaponry : |
| Bell AH-99 Gunship | ||
 | ||
|
||
| The AH-99 is intended for one use : Ground Attack. Its array of weaponry is geared to that function, and all its weight capacity is sacrificed to it. Like all helicopters, it's not heavily-armored enough to slug it out with a ground unit, so it relies on long-range firepower to destroy targets from a stand-off position. Special Equipment : Weaponry : |
| Bell F-152 Autogyro | ||
 | ||
|
||
| The ultimate in small aerial combat vehicles, the Bell F-152 is extensively used by police forces and mercenaries. Its lack of protection for the pilot is one of its least popular features. Special Equipment : Weaponry : |
| Bell RH-107 Gabriel | ||
 | ||
|
||
| This aircraft was developed specifically for the United States Air Force's SRT group, the most elite special forces in the world, whose only job is to fly behind enemy lines and rescue downed pilots. The vehicle is fast, has a long range, is equipped with the proper rescue gear, and is able to defend itself. One nice touch is a retractable floor section, allowing rescue teams to be winched up straight into the vehicle. Special Equipment : Weaponry : |

| China's newest transport helicopter carries ten men, and utilizes a twin rotor system in and over/under configuration to maximize lift and stability. The pilots are well protected behind an armored cockpit, and the twin door guns provide ample protection. Special Equipment : Weaponry : |
| Chinese Z-72 Verno | ||
 | ||
|
||
| A chinese two rotor cargo hauler and troop transport. Very no frills, in fact this is a rather dangerous bird to fly due to all the cut corners that go into its construction to keep price down. Like most Chinese warcraft, it is sold extensively in Africa, Asia and South America. Special Equipment : |
| EADS HH-218 Airbrute | ||
 | ||
|

| Hughes H-145 Nightflyer | ||
 | ||
|
||
| A helicopter which finds as much popularity with corporations as it does with militaries. In either service the primary role of this chopper is as a small transport. It is also equiped for surveillance and serves its secondary role as well as its primary. The corporate version is actually more expensive by 15000 eb, but it is much more luxurious. Special Equipment : |

|
||
| The Hughes AH-6 "Little-Bird" served the United States Military faithfully and well during it's long term of service, it's versatility combined with it's speed and affordability made it quite possible the most common military helicopter the world has ever seen.

| Hughes-Militech H-159 Thunderfist | ||
 | ||
|
||
| Developed for the US Army, the Thunderfist is an airborne sniping platform, specifically built around Militech Anti Matter 30 mm sniper weapon. The marksmen lays down in a harness which uses computerized gyro stabilizers to ensure accuracy and steadyness. The US armed forces use this vehicle as a precision anti-armor deterrent. Since it's rigged for silent running, it can usually sneak up on a target and take it out from range before the enemy even suspects anything, then escape quickly when the mission has been completed.

| A naval operations chopper manufactured in Australia. Used most frequently by naval militaries and coast guards. Special Equipment : |
| MIL MI-170 Hog | ||
 | ||
|
||
| A small Russian attack helicopter. In hopes of promoting good relations with China, Russia sold a large number of these aircraft to the Chinese military, a decision which is coming back to haunt them in light of what is happening in Africa. The Chinese have currently started manufacturing their own versions. Russia also seels them to the EEC. Special Equipment : Weaponry : |
| MIL MI-67 Kolus | ||

 | ||
|
||
| The fastest production helicopter in the world. The technological advancements made with this vehicle are boggling the world, and the USAF and the EDF Air Force are desperately trying to get their hands on one. This is one of the very few vehicles that Russia does not export, keeping their secrets closely guarded. Special Equipment : Weaponry : |
| MIL MI-83 Hinder | ||
 | ||
|
||
| The russians never forget a trick, especially one that works so incredibly well. Reminiscent of the original Hind, hence the name, the MI-83 is a weapons platform like no other. The single most armed attack chopper in the world, as well as the best armored. Whether attacking tanks, or handling insertion/extraction duties, this russian beast is the one to beat. Special Equipment : Weaponry : |
| MIL MI-H56 Heltat | ||
 | ||
|
||
| Russia's heavy lift chopper is nearly the equal of Mitsubishi's. It is also much more affordable. Special Equipment : |

| Mitsubishi TH-205 | ||
 | ||
|
||
| A luxury transport helicopter designed specifically for corporate executives. Based on specs from Arasaka and Raven Microcybernetics, Mitsubishi created this helicopter.

Sold on the commercial market worldwide to discriminating customers. Special Equipment : |
| Paneurope GH-116 Thatcher | ||

| Sikorsky EWH-X1 Swarm | ||
 | ||
|
||
| This helicopter has one purpose, and one purpose only. It is a giant jamming platform that disrupts all electronics and communications. It's tail end is dedicated jamming hardware, which blocks all radio and satellite communications in a 10 km² radius area. The tail also houses a giant microwave emitter, which can completely disable any unshielded electronic devices, frying them out and rendering them useless. Finally under the main body of the helicopter, are foil chaff cloud dispensers, which when released are dispersed by the helicopters rotors to cover a 400 meter area disrupting all laser emissions, be they tracking or communications. The helicopter is extremely vulnerable to attack from above. It gets its name from the sound made in enemy headphones when it is approaching, as the static gets worse. Special Equipment : |
| SM-Dragon | ||
 | ||
|
||
| Arguably the biggest combat helicopter in the world, the Dragon is a Euro-Soviet child of last century's monster Soviet helicopters. It's huge, it's expensive, but it's so impressive that it sells well, despite the fact that it's not a very good choice for a heavy-combat vehicle. The Dragon's ability to carry lots of troops makes it useful on the battlefield, though. (Revised stats for the Sikorsky-Mitsubishi Dragon from Chromebook 1) Special Equipment : Weaponry : |
| South African KH-Z01 Boomslang | ||
 | ||
|
||
| The only combat chopper produced in South Africa. It is obsolete western standards, but for the area of the world it operates in it gives a distinct advantage. Special Equipment : Weaponry : |
