Hmmm i don't know if the DEV's will want to use a vbf2 model :p It is a good idea to have a heli for the africans though

Lol the Chinese used to use it on Qwai and it is still on Quinling. MEC uses a AF littlebird as well.

But the first one means a new model and its a rather outdated chopper. The second one will be use as well by the French forces, so not the best idea if they are going to fight each others...

To keep in touch with reality and our background, we are thinking to give them some Chinese choppers: like the Eurocopter Dauphin (the Chinese Z.9A) or the Eurocopter AS-350 Ecureuil (the Chinese WZ-11)
I have to disagree with your statement about the outdated Alouette ! ;) They're going to use the T-55 anyway, talk about old rusty stuff !

And it seems there's only a rough dozen Ecureuil spreaded all over the continent :| That's scarce !

The Gazelle looks more appropriated IMO : the French Army variant is Recon only (with the Viviane sight, the Tigre takes care of ground attack nowadays) whereas the hypothetical ARF one would have rocket pods, woudn't it ?

As for the Z-9A, it'd be awesome if it was in-game ! :D

i guess the problem might be, if we can remove the wings without editing the model, since that is not allowed

I'm a fan of 'vintage' military equipment but I guess PR is set in the 'near' future (or so I believe...or was told or read). AS350 seems a very valid idea.

How about using a MBB Bo-105? OPK mod has one perhaps they will let you use it if you ask it via the right channels?

Their version is a Anti tank one but if you would equip it with machine guns you got something unique for your faction. :)
