The Hanagar Grows, more birds are coming!

Pilots! You've been asking us what our plans for the next set of helicopters to join the Hangar are. So, today, I'd like to answer that question as best I can. The easist way to do that? Pictures! Along with some simple bits and pieces of info. I should make it clear that this is just the current "Plan" and is subject to change at a moments notice. So, let's move on shall we?

CH-46

The Info

First, let me state again, that this is a "WIP" or "Planned" List. Any one of these helos could be made at any time. There is no order, and some helos could be cancled or changed entirely due to licenese issues. However, this is the most exaustive list of the helicopters we have planned and I wanted to share it with you. Right now, I can confirm that the CH-53 is in the final development stages and should be in the game in the coming weeks. We know a lot of you have been begging for this big bird, and she's coming, don't worrry. I don't have any information on Tier (yet) as we're still in the discussion stage on where to place the '53 in the tier list. If you have any questions related to these helos, please keep in mind that nothing is concrete. I hope this satisfies your curiosity for now Pilots. Stay tuned for more! -Rayne

Available DLCs

Heliborne seeks to introduce players to rotary-wing aviation and combat. Players will have the ability to fly a number of helicopters from the 60's forward in to the year 2000 across a wide range of maps and in a wide range of mission scenarios. Players will be able to take part in a dynamic battlefield where they support the movement of ground forces that fortify positions and create supply-lines.

Heliborne offers a new type of "Zone" Capture as one of it's core game-play concepts. Troops carried by certain helicopters must be landed at, and deployed to a landing zone. These troops fortify the zone, and in some game modes, defend a base until ground re-enforcements arrive.

Current Features

Updated simul-lite/arcade hybrid flight model that models over 70 different aspects of flight per helicopter.
Our Flight model melds the best of both worlds, and while being updated regularly, is in a state that we are very happy with. This includes momentum and inertia dynamics. This system will be expanded on with more realistic flight dynamics as the project grows.
41 Helicopter, Each with multiple weapons load-outs
The load-outs for each of our helicopters is based entirely on weapons systems that they would have, or did employ in active combat theaters and operations. You wont see a weapons loadout on our helicopters that is not historically accurate.
4 Major Mission Maps - Including Operation Nguyen Hue, Afghanistan, the Gulf of Tonkin in Vietnam, and Kosovo
All of our maps are "based" on historical conflicts and conflict locations.
2 Principle Game modes - Including standard skirmish, and Frontline mode that's currently exclusive to Operation Nguyen Hue
Skirmish mode is currently active on Afghanistan and Gulf of Tonkin and offers standard capture the flag gameplay. Operation Nguyen Hue offers the first glimpse at "Frontline" mode. As bases are captured by players, ground vehicles spawn in convoys and move across the map to fortify bases and positions.
Multiple AI controlled ground units in skirmish and Front-line mode
Tanks, Troop Carriers, and Anti-Aircraft Artillery vehicles make up the current roster of ground vehicles in Heliborne, more are planned.
Airborne Troops that can be deployed anywhere on the mapMANPADS or "Man-Portable Air Defense system" are just some of the "deploy-able" ground units that players can place anywhere, on any map. Not all helicopters carry these soldiers. Those that can, add a new level to the dynamic battlefield.
Three Classes of Helicopter from Attack, to Air-Assault, and Reconnaissance
Scout Helicopters are small, fast, and may or may not carry a small amount of soldiers. Attack Helicopters carry no troops and are dedicated to air-to-air or air-to-ground operations. Air-Assault helicopters typically carry a mix of troops and weapons and can fill multiple roles in combat.
Three Historical Tiers of Rotary Wing Aviation from 1950 to 2000
Helicopters are widely considered to have "Come of Age" during the Vietnam conflict, and over the following decades, helicopters have become integral to our very way of life. We seek to showcase Rotary wing aviation as it's evolved over four decades of conflict, support, and development.
