Sorry to say, but this thread is going to be locked before you can say "Flight of the valkyries".
It's been suggested hundreds of times before, so... check out the media section, it might already be there.

Nobody rejected it. It is just not that important at the moment.
It has been suggested countless times.

The question they'll probably ask is "what can it bring to teh game that the BH cant and are the man hours worth it?"

the huey is not needed atm, we already have the blackhawk and little bird
when (eventually) the Devs decide to spilt the US into the army and Marines, then they may look into it, but for the now, no point

IF the devs decide to put hueys in they could use the EoD ones but they would require new skins and i think slightely new models because the vietnam era hueys look a little diffrent from todays

Tbh, between the LB and BH the Huey is not a major necessity. The lynx should IMO be the most focused on helicopter next. Brit's don't have a light utility craft unlike all other factions.

Hueys you say?
I fully endorse this event or product. (Though in future please remember proper presentation when suggesting something as epic as the Huey.)
Should replace all USMC Black Hawks when the force is split into USMC/US Navy and US Army/USAF factions.
I agree that the lynx needs to get in a little more urgently, but the Huey should be next on the list, prefurrubly a Bell 212/UH-1N "Twin Huey" so it can be used by the US, UK and MEC.
Oh, and while I'm at it I also suggest that when the BH is remoddeled I suggest including a PLA version as it is in use with PLA SF and airborne units (which are, apparently, the ones represented in PR on several maps).

With the Canucks joining the fight in .7 it wouldn't be unheard of to want Gryphons (our version of the Huey) in the game.

Why? We don't use it as a frontline helicopter.
The last time I checked the only unit operating them was 25 Flight Army Air Corps that operates them is support for training in Belize.
It was a support helicopter for the Gurkhas but I doubt that now.

It's the army's jungle warfare helo, perfect for at least some of the GB vs PLA maps.

No, no, no, no!
The map makers will not even bother with the Merlin or Lynx if they have the choice of the Huey because of it being American.
It is not THE British Armed Forces Jungle Warfare helicopter, if we want to debate that then twenty or so Hueys is not an argument against the mass of Lynx, Sea King, Puma and Merlin airframes witch could do the job just as good, if not better.

Welcome to the forums, MCI. A Huey is possible in the future and has been suggested before. NP, just use the search feature before making a suggestion.
