147k Pilotmario  7.4 years ago

The MH-65DL Shadowhawk is a Special Operations variant as requested by the Lanzarrian special operations. Impressed by the MH-60D, they desired a special operations helicopter with significantly reduced acoustic signature. In addition, stub wings with hardpoints were requested. This is the result. The aircraft is also in service with other special forces units, such as Scout Rangers, SEALS, and MARSOC. This particular aircraft is in Paternian service.
