Very loosely based on a Ka-50. I thought the shape of this model was a bit boatlike so I made it able to move on water (EAH standing for Experimental Amphibious Helicopter). Controls are standard for helicopter.

Additional controls:
-VTOL : Pitch for the miniguns and the rocket pods. The miniguns are also sensitive to the yew control, aiming towards the turn direction.
-AG1: Auxiliary forward set of props (to move on water and land)
-AG2: Lights
-AG7: Stabilizator gyroscope (needed for yaw control on the water)
-AG8: Main coaxial rotors
