OOC: I like it.

OOC2: Don't worry, usually when someone opens a new store, it takes awhile for customers to show up. That's how it is with almost every store I've ever seen.

Verstummelung would like to ask of something from the designer.

Would it be possible to produce an anti-tank version of this helicopter?
Tylinoa

Yes it would be possible, you can pretty much make this into an anti-tank copter by adding the right weapons, but yea its possible. Were you thinking of making your own or did you want me to make one because I can if you want.

Thank you, we will most certainly report back to you on our testing. If acceptable, we may also order more.

What does this Helicopter offer compared to a Commanche Stealth Attach Helicopter?

Dear sirs:

As promised at the time of purchase, we wish to report back to you on the results of our testing of these fine helicopters. The significant problems noted are detailed below. Please note, however, that overall we are pleased with the craft and recongize that nothing in this world can be perfect, no matter how well designed or assembled. Compromise is inevitable, no matter the system envisioned by engineers and military experts. With that in mind:

1. The front landing gear is higly suscceptible to damage from enemy fire, particulary at the mountings on the helicopter's underbelly and in the underbelly struts' linkage to the wheels and upper mountings. Additional armor plating and/or a redesign of the front landing gear is needed.

2. Bullet proof glass on the canopy should be used. We were surprised to discover this was not standard in the design.

3. Standard issue, wing/strut mount wire guided, anti-tank TOW missiles were all but useless due to the design of the mounting struts and the helmet mounted "eye screen launch system." We blame this shortcoming more on the design of the (admittedly all but completely outdated, but still cheap and useful) missile than that of your system, but we felt you should be aware of this shortcoming.

4. Armor around the fuel tanks should be increased by about 1/4 to 1/3 of an inch - while no actual penetration of the tanks by simulated enemy fire was noted, it was close enough to cause us concern.

5. Several pilots complained that the foot-pedals used for rudder control were not as responsive as they'd like. It is probably merely a matter of tightening linkages.

On the other hand:

1. Pilots found the joystick to be particularly responsive and commented positively on the banking skills of the helicopter.

2. The thermal imaging equipment was exceptional in its detail and targeting precision.

3. Hover capabilities were also noted to exceed expectations with "on a dime" precision capabilities on winch lowered items to be limited only by wind sheer forces.

4. Cockpit noise was at an all time low for any chopper we have ever tested or built ourselves. Our pilots were exceptionally pleased with the ability to carry on conversations without excessive shouting.

All-in-all, we were pleased. If you can address the issues raised in this message, we would be willing to purchase 400 of these craft.

Sincerely,
General Jack T. Ripper,
Military Chief of Staff, by appointment to,
His Royal Highness,
King 'Lude Valeeum Narcosis II
The Royal Empire of Mauiwowee
