sirscorpion Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 I would love an AH-1Z if not an AH-1W, then a Venom if not a CH53 if not a Ch47. zero interest in the puma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sverre Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 As others have said, if we get proper troop transport, sling loading etc. I would be all in for bigger dedicated cargo helicopters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WindyTX Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 If you go to 16agr server you will find some sling loads that can only be lifted by the MI-8.

Braeden108 Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 I say no to these helicopters. I feel they have no real purpose in DCS because the ground AI is not fleshed out very well. Personally, I'd rather see your excellent development skills go towards aircraft like the Mi-24, Mi-28, AH-1 or the AH-64 (if there is a god on that last one.) If this were Prepar3d or Flight Sim I'd say sure, because those games are more about flying. DCS is about fighting. Light the tires kick the fires!

Coops Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 I say yes... I would say if your leading down the LHA/LHD look to the marine air wing makeups with AH-1s osprey chinook uh series ie venom and b/hawk. units that are useful to missions in dcs... SnR/ground support/logistics/ would be great to have that fully immersive group. Coops Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarlerus Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 For me it all boils down to game play in the end. I'd vote yes if you can manage to find interesting, entertaining and challenging tasks for it to do in DCS. Tasks that can make it fun to play in multiplayer situations as well. So; Yes, if it's mission can be replicated in a good manner. No, if you can't replicate it in a satisfying manner in DCS (yet). It's also one of those "I probably would not buy, but I'd love to fly with others that have" :) Jarl at YouTube DCS Service Span and Wishlist Spreadsheet Forum post for discussion of above spreadsheet Retro Electro Playlist on Spotify Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Galwran Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 I would buy even the DCS-desk fan, but I hardly ever fly even the Mi-8. Is there is going to be a new transport helicopter, it would really need to have some nice and fun functionality. Laying mines or something.

Ciribob Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Chinook or Puma would be great! With the new models for sling loads and CTLD you could do a lot. My preference would be Chinook then Puma.

Woogey Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 I haven't read through all seven pages of responses yet, I will just add my two cents here. The CH-46 frog and the CH-53 would be great. The frog above and beyond the CH-53 for two simple resasons: 1) We don't have any form of frog in the Sim at this point in time, we do have an Ai -53. 2) Not only would the frog be a natural fit on the deck of an LHA or LHD, but it is the primary Vertrep platform for ship to ship transfers. Speaking of LHD, it is my opinion that RAZBAM should do a Wasp class, instead of a Tarawa Class. The reason being, Markindel just released a really nice LHA-1. We already have a LHA in sim. It would be really nice to have a Phrog model to go do insertions with similar positions as the BST Huey, Door gunners, pilot, and co-pilot. -Woog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ObiWanVA10 Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Yes! for me the Chinook and puma, brings back memories of being picked up after a long wet patrol :) Puma (Later Oryx in SA Air Force) is the most beautiful sound in the world........coming to extract you after weeks of living dug in in a hole somewhere on a clandestine mission.......oh the memories .

Tomtekopf Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 While these kinds of aircrafts certainly have a place in a combat environment, I think there are many other aircraft available to make that would fill out the environment better right now. For example a USSR competitor to current and upcoming western fighters. Then we can finally leave FC3 in the dust on the multiplayer servers. In way of helicopters I'd rather see something like the NH-90, that's both transport capable and also bringing something new to the table like subhunting.

Badger1-1 Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Since Red has the Mi8, I think its only fair to give blue a Cargoheli as well! The bigger the better :) And Ch 53 saw a lot of combat in the German Army. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
