Description This is something I thought could've fit into any near-future universe, though it's intended for either a post-Tiberian Sun RP Xaeryx suggested, but never came through on. I was never sure whether to make it a rotorcraft (helicopter) or one of those twin ducted-fan birds like an Orca from C&C, so I left 'em off. This is why it's in the scraps bin and not a deviation. As a transport gunship, it'd be perfect for my USSF sci-fi thing, which I may still do in the future.

Based loosely on both the Soviet Mil-24 Hind-D and the American MH-60D Pavehawk, this is a tandem-seat transport-gunship used by special forces for hot insertions and to provide overhead cover to the troops once they're on the ground. Never put up any weapons on this thing, but you can rightfully assume it's gonna have a cannon-pod nose-turret, two MG positions ahead of the loading doors, and mounted rockets and whatnot on the stub wings.

Enjoy guys!
