UH-1H 'Heavy Hog' Gunship(s)
Ladies & Gents, Boys & Girls.
I've banged on about the lack of UH-1H 'Huey' helicopters without forward-facing M134's for long enough, as such; I, with help from Kuka & Claude, have put this together. It is here.
I bring you, the UH-1H 'Heavy Hog' Gunships. - Yes, there's more than one.
These are all gunship variants of the UH-1H, dubbed in the 'Nam era as 'Heavy Hog(s)' due to their outfitting as dedicated gunships; there's three variants overall.
I note that:
- Door gunner's mounts have also had their arc-of-fire widened.
- Door gunner's mounts are much more responsive to the gunner's mouse/thumbstick input.
- Items with the prefix of "Forward" are only operable by the pilot.
- Spare ammo references the total of boxes that the Door Gunners have onboard at spawn.
