Copyright (c) 1996 by Jon Glenn This is a helicopter from a game I'm currently running. I based it on the Eurocopter Fennic scout/utility helo. This is the export version, with cheaper equipment. In my game-world, it is 25 years after WWIII, and most of the civilized areas are slightly more advanced than they currently are. In Vehicles terms, use TL8 bodies and armor, but not the advanced ones. TL8 weapons and ammo cost triple of what's listed in the book, with gauss guns, rail runs, and prototype lasers as the only energy weapons. TL8 accessories and TL7 ones reverse prices. The best energy storage method is advanced batteries. Stealth systems are bought as normal for TL8. The first performance figure is for 4 crew and an empty hardpoint. The second assumes an 1768lb hardpoint load.
