welcome to the PR forums!

unfortunately this has been suggested many times before and even if we added a chinook to the gam it would only be able to carry 8 ppl because of engine limitations. Actually i think theres a chinook helicopter under construction.

Chinook FTW!

We'll see how it goes. Good suggestion though, just a bit tardy.

Good times playing BF:Vietnam and having the Chinook full and a bunch of guys just laying down in the middle of it trying not to fall off.

Two squads in real life is more like 30 some odd guys. Just keep that in mind when you are reading specs of aircraft and they mention squad capacity. A blackhawk can carry 12 passengers and its half the size of the Chinook

Chinook is the Sea Stallion right? That is what USMC use and I would love to see that. Also I just need to ask this question. I've seen vids of FH1 on BF1942 where they jammed ppl into a transport plane and they didn't have to sit in slots they were just standing inside the plane. Is the BF2 engine not capable of doing this? I would assume that the BF2 engine is built up off of 1942, but I may be wrong which is why I just play the game, not make it. So is there a specific reason why we are unable to do this?

Chinook and the Sea Stallion are totally different helicopters... hence the name

I think the USMC uses both?

I thought Chinook was a nickname; is the Chinook the Helicopter with 2 Rotors?

As has been mentioned, Chinooks have been suggested multiple times. Please make use of the search function and the "already suggested suggestions" thread before posting a new one.
