You'd also have to make it so that you don't drop dead as soon as the chopper starts moving.
yeah, but that's gotta be taken out anyway. u can't even hitch a ride on a tank this way...

^^ its odd you should mention that vehicle
but il let you know tanks cannot go in the back of chinooks. way too big.
capacity of 54 people and up to 4 crew members. vehicles carryed inside are things like quadbikes with the exception of loosing people to make room.
lighter vehicles and bigger cargo can be transported with these but by attaching them to a cord on the bottom of the chinook - not inside.

True, Chinooks cannot carry tanks, but they can carry Land Rovers internally, not just as a sling-load.
Lets just make it so we can put vehicles in the back, im perfectly fine with Landrovers, Humvees in the back of chinooks... But, with all that extra weight, it should mess with the control of the chopper alittle, say longer take off times, etc.
how bout the sas pink panther thats the only vehicle i know thats pink but still cool or any of the modded up land rovers like the one with a mounted TOW. if anyones got any pictures of them post them cos i dont know how.
yeah well you can take the piss mate but that proved BETTER than the hummer in the gulf the pink pattern just provides a weird but apparently affective camoflauge.
In the second world war the military painted their vehicles pink in desert terrain. I know it sounds mad but apparantley pink vehicles are harder to spot than yellow ones in the desert!
one of the weird subtleties about human vision i guess, youd think it would stand out more than the desert colored vehicles, imagine seeing a whole bunch of pink tanks coming at you.

The second chinook in the image is a CH 47d too.
The HMMWV cannot fit inside the Chinook, which is why the 75th Rangers saw the need for the Land Rover RSOV.
The Chinook in the second photo is an MH-47E Chinook from the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment.
The SAS use the Land Rover SOV among other vehicles (they were at one time reported to be evaluating a variant of the "Supacat"). They're not really that pink anymore, of course when covered with desert dust and debris everything becomes a shade of brown.
it just has to do with how the human eye sees, maybe when the eye sees blue and tan, the two most prominant colors in the desert, things that are pink seem to blend in more.
dunno. what matters is that it works. whoever thought of painting them pink was a genious. or maybe there was a patrol leader with a daughter who asked him to paint the things pink and he found out it actually worked.
