Question about the in-game Huey

Hi there,

I got a question for the DEV's. (read: not a suggestion, to clear stuff up) How come you're using the more 1970's like Huey, rather then the more updated UH-YH1 Huey.
Current Huey:

More up to date Huey:

It won't have much notable gameplay difference compared to the current one, but it does look better. But I'm aware that graphical stuff is very low priority for the DEV's. But I was just wondering. ;)

The good ol' vietnam huey is way more sexier then the huey venom (the big thing underneath the rotorblades is fugly)so i dont mind the old one staying.

I think they have the old huey just becus they could get it from OPK or EOD,so it was easier to reskin the UH-1N instead of moddeling the huey venom

!? the huey in PR IS the modern version, that one on ur pic is just a bid more specialized, the old 70s huey was more like thisImage it had a single turbine and a more stubby nose

like the previous posts, i would rather have the current one than the one in the picture, its a bit off reality but hey, where else can u experience hitting the beach in a huey on Operation Barracuda like you would in Vietnam (or Apocalypse Now)

Definitely still the current variant. As far as I know the UH-1Y is an upgrade project/new purchase plan.

I think I read somewhere that the version in the picture was used by the Canadians... I think it was like in the Canadian CF, there was a discussion about the Huey... I might just be hallucinating, so, you don't 100% have to believe me.
