AH-1Z Super Cobra (small skin adjustment)

[agentscar]

I was just wondering if the following could be done to the AH-1Z Super Cobra in game currently...It's a quite small request...This is pretty much how it'd be IRL.

-Add "MARINES" text on the Tail
-Make the grey color it currently has a tad bit darker...Like the BHawks in game...Or maybe even a tad darker...

I really love this chopper,though I barely get to use it in PR it seems...So just wondering on the above...

[Raniak]

I remember that back in the times Maestro had done a reskin of it and made it a lot more good looking. What happened to that skin ?

[Mora]

The Apache needs a skin with more dust on it for the desert maps. As the Apache will be on Kashan again, and now that kashan is abit of a dusty map it might be realistic...

[agentscar]

Can we keep this about the Cobra,and not Apache...LOL...But yea I guess it could use some dust on it,but..eh...

[SuperTimo]

what is with the little roundal on the cobra? it looks like an RAF one which makes me think wtf?

[agentscar]

Who knows why that roundel is on it,lol...Needs skin fix,is all I do know,lol.

Dust + High speed rotors creating heavy downdraft = no dust.

Surely any dust sat on the chopper (which would likely be removed by decent maintanence anyway) would get blown off instantly?

True Harrod.But why was I quoted,I didn't bring it up,lol..I was even iffy about it anyway...

ANYWAYS,On topic,some Pictures of AH-1Z Super Cobras :

Also then, the cobra needs only 14 hydras as it is carrying two 7 capacity hydra pods. I guess this is not meant to be in PR and the model can´t be changed, but a small detail.

As for kashan, I am sure what will be kept is what is most realistic.

3rd link is the AH-1J judging from its name but its pretty much the same thing, no?? Also first link is AH-1A but im guessing they all have same camo stuff?

You weren't quoted...

Edit: hold on it would appear that im wrong about the vBF2 model but the real zulu cobra does have 4 rotors so still, none of those pics are zulu cobras.

But i do agree with your suggestion.

I think he's getting more at the Camo, rather than the type.

Yeah i know but someone was pointing out the fact that some of the pics are titled AH1J/A so i thought i would straighten that out for the sake of spreading knowledge.

[Scot]

Aha i see. But lets all agree that the vBF2 choppers all need a reskin e.g BHand Cobra...

[gclark03]

The conclusion: Someone needs to remodel the AH-1Z as seen in PR to achieve two things:

1) Actually be an AH-1Z, rather than the bastardized hybrid we see today.
2) Reflect the camo/paint/decals used by the Marine Corps in the Middle East.

ITS NOT A ROUNDEL, ITS A TARGET

[agentscar]

Yea,but at least re-skin the current cobra,before making a new better one..lol.I just want a good looking one to play with until then,lol.

[Ironcomatose]

Yea the 3rd link is an AH-1J,but the others are AH-1Z's...

No they are not. AH1Zs have four rotors, period. Therefor two rotors = not AH1Z, period.

[agentscar]

Yea,I edited my post,lol.
