Now that is what I was talking about.

One more armament subsystem for the Huey!

The M129 was a redesign of the M75 grenade launcher that featured reduced recoil and improved mounting and provided an increased rate of fire of up to 400rpm compared to 225rpm for the M75. It is capable of using both the high-velocity 40x53mm grenade and the lower velocity 40x46mm grenade.



Enjoy!

Could be the drawing but it looks like the minigun mount is attached to the barrels which would be spinning may want to check that

Everything on this forum is always a work-in-progress, here is an update that we had done on the M134 minigun more than two weeks ago... with ammo boxes too!




Enjoy!

Fantastic job with this option. Would be perfect for a special operation forces twin huey

Yep fixed, nice job

This is looking very nice. Really like the idea for the swing and tilt flight support.

The first day of work at our HK studio... and this is what awaits us - a working prototype of the Bell UH-1D "Huey".

The prototype is used for design & production discussions on how to improve the design before sending it off for mould making. Most key components come apart showing the interior. One step closer to finalising the design.




Enjoy!

This is a must have. I will pick up 3 of them.
Is there any chance to have a UH-1N version in the near future ?

More imagery on the Huey working prototype.  We had been playing around with the Huey equipping it with various weapon systems, door armament, and crew compartment arrangements.  Look promising with all these extension and conversions.  Still need some minor design updates but a bright road ahead for our first flying machine!



















Enjoy!
