I would suggest merging the several identical threads of this, in case somebody wants to add any content to it.

Remarks: In Svc: Oct 62 - ?
Helicopter. Pre-1962 designation HU2K-1. Was used as general transport between ships as well as SAR mission. UH-2A/B have one single engine (first speed and ranges, est 1200 kg slung load). UH-2C and HH-2D have two engines (second speeds and ranges, 1800 kg slung load). Can carry 4 passengers.

We still have the same problem, we are talking about a helicopter focused solely on the ASW environment, and in DCS World there is not even a single Sonar engine... not to mention everything that is missing (I have already repeated myself too much). Will be feasible a UH-2 version, but surely that will be a 3rd Party module.

Only if we get more period naval assets they retired from us service in 1993. Not saying no just saying it would be awesome for a cold war environment
