I back this statement up aswell. Would love to see those 3 helicopters.

CH-53 would be my dream to fly over a V22 any day. The Lynx is certainly needed as the British are lacking a light offensive helicopter. Then again, the Kiowa is being downsized if not removed to the best of my knowledge. This is because the AH-64D Apache Longbow can do the very same thing but better.

Because the kiowa is getting on for 50 years old! Also a fair few have been lost over the years and even more have been lost in Iraq. It was going to be replaced with the Comanche, but the program was cancelled. The ARH-70 is a modified Bell 407 civilian helicopter. Theres a very slight chance the ARH will be cancelled as well, because the US Army was quoted $5 mill each and now they cost $10 mill each - still alot less than the $60 mill each for the comanche. They wasted $8 BILLION developing that before they cancelled it :D

Am I the only one who'd like to see more small transport helo's in PR? We need more littlebird's, enough with these overly large heli's that can only transport 8 people, make little ones that transport a single squad n be done with it.

I think CH-46 is more used by the marines than the CH-3.
CH-3 is so huge. Don't worry Ice, all ppl here will love the CH-46.

Kiowa?

You said it was a chopper, which discounts the V22

Theres not really many more that would be worth doing and suitable for the game.
Gazelle - pretty much a top brass taxi
UH-60M - not worth it for the differences from a BH
Dakota - not used in theatre and theres already a model
ah wait UH-1Y Venom - that would be worth doing ;)
any other helis would be a waste of time imo.
