    I was(Still am sort of) a member of the British armed forces i did multiple tours of afghanistan and Iraq my last tour was 18 months in afghanistan, The regiment i was with meant that we were quite often out doing what we do for weeks on end and only resupplied by air assets and so we had to carry a lot of equipment/supplies which just our bergens alone weighed 120lbs/54ish kg then we had our weapons and rigging on top of this and we had no trouble at all working with this.

    We and i bet most armed forces personell will say the same you can run a lot further than 200-500mtrs with over 120lbs and be out of breath but dont pass/black out. Heck we used to run for well over a few miles getting used to the weight whilst preparing for our deployment and that was in Kenya/Kuwait.

    The first part was so crappy because:

    - The Helo should have been the AH-1Z and NOT the Apache because you seem to be a Marine (and not Army)!

    - The first/helo part doesn't give almost any freedom of movements to the player.

    - The chat between the pilot and gunner was the most lame chat that I ever saw!

    - Like "Australia says" in the end of the campaign -> WTF??: The Apache carries 8 sidewinder missiles in the place of the hellfires!! That's totally UNREALISTIC!

    Armament

    * Guns: 1× 30 × 113 mm (1.18 × 4.45 in) M230 Chain Gun with 1,200 rounds

    * Rockets: Hydra 70 FFAR rockets

    * Missiles: combination of AGM-114 Hellfire, AIM-92 Stinger, and AIM-9 Sidewinder

    this was taken from wiki the AH-64 can take a full load of Air to Air missile be they stingers or sidewinders although you will not see it used that often in real life as the enemies airforce will already of been rendered useless by tomahawks and surgical strikes by bombers.

    Hey Lads thanks for this its running sweetly for us and we are keeping up to date with the updates. The main priority it seems to me for the Modders of this MOD was to give us the US army side of things like the bradleys and strykers.

    I would like to make a suggestion can you please include a CHINOOK as this is a more viable army hardware for transporting troops compared to the lame MV22 Osprey. this would please a few of the units in the community based on realife US army divisions like ourselves.

    Thankyou again for a sweet mod HOOAH!!

    Obviously All Hummers/FAV's and also LAV's i for realism sake dont think tanks should be transported by helo but thats me. And all the repeair/refuel/rearm and standard MTVR's.

    @daniel if you have the chinooks coming with netted cargo id like to see a system implemented that whilst flying the cargo hits the ground u lose it or stand the chance of also losing the helo as all transporting at the mo the cargo underslung just melts into the ground and is at no danger. it gives the pilots sumat else to think about
