Helicopters for PLA/MEC
I was just wondering about the fact, that there is only one transport heli and one attack heli of for PLA/MEC, while US/UK have a bunch of choppers and they will even get more.
US/UK:
Merlin
Transport LB
Attack LB (Minigun)
Attack LB (Rockets)
Transport Huey
Attack Huey (Rockets)
Transport BH
Chinook
Cobra
Apache
kind of a chopper - V-22 Osprey
and someone is modelling the CH-53 I read a few days ago
PLA/MEC:
Havoc
WZ-10
Z-8
MEC transport chopper (don't know the name. It looks like a Mi-17(1))
China Chopper on Qwai (looks like kind of a SA 360, but it can't be because the SA 360 is a 2+8/10 seater and I couldn't find a version IRL with machineguns - and ingame this chopper flys kind of ****)
MEC Chopper on Kashan (don't know what this is, maybe a BO-xxx something)
As i stated in another thread PLA/MEC is a bit behind on the equipment side even if these factions are getting a few new rifles. IMO they need some fast transport choppers. For PLA I would suggest the SA 360:
DAUPHIN 2 (AEROSPATIALE)
This chopper can be used as transport or kind of attack chopper like the huey.
For MEC I can't really imagine a transport chopper, as this faction consists out of a lot of countries. Maybe the Ka-60.
Ka-60 "Kasatka" / Ka-62
MEC should have a lot of money, so they could easily effort any transport helicopter.
Maybe this can be considered by the devs in a future release.

Re: Helicopters for PLA/MEC
It's a very good point. They may not see those exact helicopters that you mentioned above, but giving them more assets is definitely on the list.

Re: Helicopters for PLA/MEC
That'll be the Chinese Dauphin rip off then, as theres no confirmed navalized version of the Ka-60.
Oh, and WTB lynx.

The key to modernising any weapon is covering them in glue and tossing them in a barrel of M1913 rails until they look "Modern" enough.

Re: Helicopters for PLA/MEC
I think the MI 35 should be MEC transport/assaulat,like the LB. There is one already modeled from bf2 Special Forces

Mi 35 for the same role as the Little Birt? WutSanke wrote:I think the MI 35 should be MEC transport/assaulat,like the LB. There is one already modeled from bf2 Special Forces
Maybe BlackHawk but not the LB.

Re: Helicopters for PLA/MEC
Oh yes a Hind which is an attack chopper and transport at the same time will be a perfect Littlebird counter-part.

Re: Helicopters for PLA/MEC
KA-50 is ready
https://www.realitymod.com/forum/f66-pr ... -50-a.html
I get a hard on just looking at it.
It is available for sale IRL. so if MEC use Mi-28 its only logical that they would
buy the Ka-50/52 in the "near" future where PR/bf2 is set

If violence isn't the answer, then you obviously need more violence.

Re: Helicopters for PLA/MEC
Now now, I'm sure you can share like big boys! 
By the way, alot of the stuff mentioned in the OP like the V-22 and the Chinook are quite likely to never make it in game, unless we get some massive maps where they can be justified/Dice change it so we can get more then 8 $^%$^ing people in a vehicle (and more then 6 in a squad and 64 in a server while their at it!).

Re: Helicopters for PLA/MEC
I'd like to see the BF2:SF MI-35 or the USI MI-25 also.
