An improvement over the earlier helicopters, it features a more streamlined control system. In addition, the weapons stations were moved to more convenient locations, and given modifications to accept gunship upgrades. This particular aircraft is configured as an anti-armor helicopter, with four ATGMs. While not ideal for the role due to its basic avionics, rudimentary countermeasures, and lack of any protection, it is certainly capable of at least deterring armored forces from advancing with its presence.
