NordahlLunden ARH-6 Magpie Armed Reconnaissance Helicopter

Newquay Armed Forces Collection

NordhalLunden SE




DESCRIPTION

The RH-6 "Magpie" Armed Reconaissance Helicopter, built by NordahlLunden, is a small and fast scouting helicopter, capable of deploying and supporting both Special Operations Forces and Air Cavalry Troops, alongside other Newquay Helicopters. The RH-6 was the result of the need for a helicopter that could quickly reposition small groups of troops, and operate in confined spaces, something the larger AW260 "Gryphon" and AW280 "Vulture" were too large to do, especially in urban environments. With an internal passenger carrying capability of 4, and the ability for another 4 men to sit facing outwards, the RH-6 provided the perfect combination of speed, agility, and passenger capacity to move an entire Special Forces Section in only minutes. Additionally the aircraft has been taken up by JTAC Infantry teams to provide a means of quickly repositioning to call in airstrikes and missile strikes, and as a Light CASEVAC aircraft for non-life threatening injuries, although it has been known to fly critical casualties when no other asset has been available, where its speed has been greatly appreciated. The RH-6 is also capable of mounting two weapons pylons, in this role unofficially regarded as the ARH-6, the helicopter loses its 4 door passenger seats in favour of up to 4 BGM-6 Air-Ground Missiles, giving it a potent Anti-Tank capability, which sees particular effective use when operating alongside Mechanised Infantry Regiments.

(con't from below)

2a. For defense it is unrivaled, however. I flew 16 sorties in 30 minutes. Power on, exit hanger, fly towards the coast, fire, back to hanger, repeat. You can't start and deploy some ground vehicles this fast!

3. We lightly modified ours for our needs and that included adding a 3rd hard point, but in hindsight I advise you switch out the pylons for items in the Falkner-Muir weapon line. 2 x2 25mm cannons was a lot of fun.... We use 2 IRM-20s for very effective AAM and RM-19s for ground/air mixed missions.

Amazing craft and we love it. Add C4 and medical for special operations. With these additions it can also do a mild SAR role if you have a copilot willing to jump out the side sometimes.

Comprehensive Review for people looking to field this airframe in 2024:

1. Amazing craft. The Magpie is the star of our fleet. VERY stable, VERY reliable. Runs on diesel so we are never thirsty for fuel. Fast take off, good control response, very maneuverable. It blows in a wind a lot as expected for a smol craft and it's not terribly fast, but we do not find it lacking in any regard. Minimal console makes flying easy. It's simple and just helicopters. This is an honest and 1:1 simulation of a real AH-6 little bird, and I love it.

2. only drawback to not use it in every engagement is its limited payload. Since it has only modest speed, it takes a minute to get to the target and when your missiles are gone in 2 seconds you now have to fly back to rearm and hope the opposition doesn't flee or repair.

@titan helicopters lean to the side like that when they have a tailrotor
titan 21 May, 2024 @ 11:20pm 
is there a way to fix the helicopter leaning to the right when flying forward?
