AB-212 / AB-412 / Huey II look-alike facelift MOD for the UH-1H

[mwlue]

First thing first, Thank you for the OP to bring the community such a beautiful work.  Hat off. 

Been a fan of the "long nose" Huey for some time.

Back to the business, so the mod used pylon 2 to mount the "long nose" and other stuffs.  Would it be possible to still mount weapons (and use them) at the same time???

Thank you.

Yes, it is possible on all pylons except pylon 2. However, you have to modify the UH-1H.lua accordingly. EightBalls examples in that file make use of this, he adds payloads in one "kit" to dofferent pylons, also see how the WTS is setup together with the cutters as example. You may want to hide the front pylons though. However, it remains a sort of workaround, since ED does not allow to register new discrete payloads to pylons anymore, at least for the Huey.

@rato65 Thank you!!!

And some WIP for both covers + roughmet...

@rato65 & @Neo47  Awesome job, guys!

 

Updated the USN Rescue liveries with the new turbine cover details.

Upuaut has kindly allowed me to redistribute his liveries so unlike the previous ones these are fully standalone liveries:

Beside fixing a small typo on the belly of the aircraft (Abandon instead of Abondon) I've also made 2 generic variants without the name of the Air Station on the doors

Im in love with the 212 Mod

[shinobi61]

this is so cool

[bennyboy9800]

This is awesome! This makes me think the Mi-8 Hip could use a similar facelift. 

 

Any talented modelers think its possible to change the shape of the nose?

it is a completely different helicopter and would require a complete new mod.

I would love to see one in DCS to support naval operations...but that is beyond my capabilities.

[JFCshloss]

id like to see the army air corps version but aye i know its different 

[Neo47]

Sorry for the delay but due to health reasons it was unfortunately not possible earlier.
