Agree. UH60M would be not only hampered by lack of classified data and out of context in DCS being too modern.

What is more it has FBW flight control so I'm afraid it would be simply boring and trivial to fly compared to classic UH60.

coming back to old posts, we now have CH47F as a EA module. With this being the most modern utility helicopter, it makes me want a Uh60M more especially since there is a Uh60L community mod, and a glass cockpit Uh60 would feel more in line with the technology level the Ch47F offers.

And no the Uh60M doesn't actually have FBW, There was some white paper about it but never came to fruition. Actually produced UH60M's in service are still using some form of SCAS system, it looks like the same one as Uh60L based on comparing scas panels between both Uh60L and Uh60M versions.

Screw the Blackhawk, I want "Helicopter 66". I remember nights spent before the TV with my parents, waiting for the "moon capsule" to water-down. Helicopter 66 is what fascinated me most, what an absolutely iconic aircraft.

My own country operated the Sea King Mk48 for decades, and we even had a very successful (locally at least) TV series made about its SAR adventures.

I’d love to see one in DCS one day
