Huge thanks to realSavageMan for the original UH-60.
Another thanks to WIZARD2017 for allowing me to use the weapons on his AH-64D Apache on this build.

History:

The MH-60M DAP is flown in the medium attack helicopter role. Instead of carrying troops, the DAP is equipped with an array of weaponry so that it can perform armed escort and close air support missions.

The DAP is fitted with the Light Armament Support Structure (LASS) - a set of stub wings with hardpoints for mounting various weapon systems. The weapons that can be carried by the MH-60M DAP are:

2 x M134 miniguns, in a fixed forward-facing fitment
Up to 2 M230 30mm chain guns - the same gun as found on the AH-64 Apache gunship
Up to 4 M261 FFAR 2.75" 19-rocket pods - which can fire high explosive, smoke or anti-personnel fletchette rounds
Up to 16 AGM-114 Hellfire laser-guided missiles via M299 launcher.
AIM-92 ATAS (Air To Air Stinger)
GAU 19/A .50 cal 3-barrelled gatling gun (rarely, if ever, fitted)
A monocular head-up display (MONOHUD) provides weapon aiming cues for the pilots.

Notes:

When spawning in, the helicopter tends to "jump". Can't fix it, but it's harmless.

Minigun Barrels don't spin, but I can't fix that either.
