[Jahve 0]

A bit inside info here: Scorpster should if possible release the CH-53E this week...

[Scorpio 0]

Just an update...the whole chopper is going under heavy upgrades and also we'll see the MH-53J Pavelow variant soon.

Will this have option to turn on/off cargo and cockpit light during night flight?

what sthe status on this chopper

[Scorpio 0]

Sorry for the delay, we're finalising the scripts a bit. We had a big problem with it and we're fixing that and other stuff. It's still in stages of beta testing.

could u say the period when the ch-53 is getting released ?

[Scorpio 0]

No release dates anymore.

[2stoned2kil- 0]

I mean a period like this summer or within 3months something like that

Are you going to release a dark green or black version?

[Scorpio 0]

yes, the dark green version is already done. The black version is the MH-53E Seadragon, and thats still under construction.

Doesn't look like black to me  

(lol....even thought the squadron IS called the "BLACK Stallions")

[Scorpio 0]

What about this? Seems blackish to me...

In that pic you showed, the MH-53E is infact black, its just the lighting that makes it seem as a different colour.

Will there be designation numbers and a squad designation on the fuel tank as in the real pics?

[Scorpio 0]

Ehh...the MH-53E doesn't have fuel tanks. It's the gear bay, and yes they will.

LOL...of course it has fuel tanks...But they aren't in those sponsons

And I really don't think the MH-53E in the pic I posted is black...It's more like dark grey (which makes sense seeing as it's operated at sea from a carrier)

The best thing about this chopper is the electronics. It can also deploy zodiac boats from the back for navy seal operations. Would there be any chance that a zodiac boat could fit in back full of passenger and ready to drop for this model?

Sponsons?

Maybe you're mixing it up with the MH-53J...

[Shashman 0]

@Too Tall...If you're gonna be a smartass at least make sure your quotes are correct...what I SAID was "operated at sea from a carrier"

@Scorpio...Sponsons are those parts into which the gear retract, the big parts that stick out from the side....lol..hard to explain  

[Wonder 0]

hmm.. sea carrier? that's an awful lot of water to carry!

[Shashman 0]

ROFLMAO!!
