Bell 412 close to finished

Recommended Posts

That would be awesome if you could adapt it to a UH-1Y perhaps in both Canadian and USMC colors if possible. It's getting frustrating not having a armed assault helicopter for Suchey's Marines. Scorpio's CH-53 is great and all, but it has no door gun and is very slow (not good against Tonal's RPGAA militiamen). So having a troop transport that's a little more agile and with some firepower (maybe a version with the rocket pods) would be awesome. But I understand that the Canadian stuff comes first which is cool. But I must say that I was and still am EXTREMELY grateful that you guys at Operation Northstar were gracious enough to make a LAV-25.

I also enjoy using the Canadian addons for making UN missions. I just hope to see some in desert uniforms for use in Afghanistan missions. smile_o.gif

Anyhoo... I'm looking forward to the Griffon. Finally the Canadian troops will have a goodl heli transport.

Canadians in Afghanistan have mostly used normal woodland camoflauge for many of the missions which they have in the mountainous regions which do, by the way, have some vegetation and does work.

We have desert camo, we just decide not to use it.

That, or some big camo buff can fix that info up if im wrong.

Standard CADPAT camo is used in general by the CAF in Afghanistan.

We do have CADPAT AR (arid/desert) but its not standard issue. I believe only SF have it.

Could use the Kiowa for them perhaps. I really like the look of that UH-1Y, especially equipped with rockets. Would make a real nice addon for sure.

Um... I don't think the US Marines use the Kiowa...and the Kiowa doesn't carry a squad of men in it. But anyways I'm just hoping that after the Griffon release maybe he might consider doing a USMC UH-1Y.

No Kiowa for the Corps, the closest thing to the OH-58D Kiowa that the Marines use are Navy TH-57's in flight school.

Any report about the 412 ?

I'm waiting for that heli for a looooooooooong time (I can wait until finished, just want to know if something goes wrong with the project)
