CH-53E 'Super Stallion'
BRIEF HISTORY
The CH-53E is an absolute UNIT in service with the United States Marines as a heavy lift/transport helicopter, as well as the US and Japanese Navies for mine sweeping. The Super Stallion originates from the Sikorsky S-65 airframe, which proved itself in the Vietnam War, rescuing downed aircrew as what became the 'Jolly Green Giant'. However, the US Military wanted something with better lifting power, so naturally they slapped a third engine on it and called it a day (they did more than that, but I'm just saying). Thus, the Super Stallion was born.
"LET ME SHOW YOU ITS FEATURES" -a cool Bavarian youtuber
-Chaff/Flare dispensers (80 chaff 16 flares)
-Fully functioning and modeled cockpit based off of the CH-53E cockpit layout
-Added turbines for slightly more forward thrust (see controls)
-Decently maneuverable for its size
-Heckin chonker (very resilient design, can take a beating)
CONTROLS
-AG.1-Collision Lights
-AG.2-Interior Lights
-AG.5-Turbine Engines (moar power!)
-AG.8-Gyro (yeah, its cheating, but the airframe was bugging out without it so i had to)
Max speed is very similar to the real deal, rated at 170kts (200mph/320kph). However, you need to use max collective and pitch down to achieve. (I have reliable sources that claimed it may be capable of 190kts/220mph/354kph though)
