The current variants look very nice, I'd love to see some kind of dedicated gunship, perhaps with a nose cannon turret and maybe some kind of aiming reticle for the pilot.

We don't really have any kind of modern minelayer helicopter as far as I know, so UH1X minelayer variant could be a pretty interesting addition.

Possible to get compatibility with or have native HMD or HUD?

Otherwise this mod is muito bom! Obrigado

I won't put it because.

In the lore of this Huey, only the components and some accessories were updated, the government didn't want to spend a lot of money 😄

I dont want to make it too advanced but it seems like a good idea

Any sort of aim assist would be very helpful - using a marker or sticker on our monitor isn't always practical in the long run

Hey John!
If I had to upgrade and redesign the Huey, I would start from the most advanced version, I think it's the Viper (Mk. Y), or at least the two engined version (Mk. N).
Adding blades to the rotors will give you a silenced flight, extra engine will give you more power and safety. but this we already got in the Viper, so let's move even further, to 2035:
angled shapes for the body, for stealth, with coverings for the rotor shafts (like BS did to the Ghost Hawk), maybe retracing landing gear / skies?
Look how the Black Hawk became the Ghost Hawk - all these angles and zig-zag coverings make it look futuristic but still understandable.

Really great and FUN heli to fly.
Making a version Giving the co-pilot a Turret Camera and way to direct the spotlight would make it perfect. other than that great work!

I really thought about making it look like Ghost Hawk, but as you can see in the lore I came up with, the idea was to use the simpler version of Huey because there was more in stock and it was cheaper.

yes I agree that it needs some kind of targeting system, I'll add that, I just haven't had time yet hahaha

Any possibility of doing a design more similar to the UH-1Y Venom?
