I need an assault helicopter, however, I am all but retarded at rendering new stuff. If anyone would help me out I would be grateful.

Il try my hand at designing a new attack helicopter :) I need one myself

By design do you mean a helecopter pic or a design like those in a storefront. If its the former, I can't help you. If its the latter... I still can't help you but DMG probably could.

From the Desk of Supreme Chancellor Evan Ryoushi

To The Esteemed Leaders of Vietnamexico,

We the nation of Kattor would be proud to fulfil the contract if we win your favor. We have recently devolped a number of weapons including a breed of small assault copters. They're small size makes them difficult to target by surface to air missles, and the have been formatted with stealth technology. May whomever's design you choice protect your nation til it's respectful retirement.
-Signed The Supreme Chancellor Evan Ryoushu of the Democratic Republic of Kattor-

Otagia and Pale Rider Arms will be happy to supply you with the Thunderbird VTOL Gunboat, which, with its channel-wing design, is vastly more efficient than a Helicopter, as well as capable of higher speeds. A design will be sent to you as soon as possible.

whoever makes the lowest bid for the 5000 attack helicopters we need will recieve the contract

The Nine Military Storefront has two designs to offer for this contract:

The Cobra AH-1x is a state of the art attack helicopter, totally redesigned from the venerable yet effective AH-1 attack helicopter, this updated model offers stronger and lighter composite skin, Integral Helmet HUD, weapons track from the pilots head movement, increased visual capabilities, improved avionics and materials put this Helicopter on par with the Comanche in terms of maneuverability and combat effectiveness. This aircraft is a hardy contender in any climate and environment.

AH-71 (Red Kite)
Length: Rotors unfolded: 47 feet, 3 inches
Rotors folded: 28 feet, 5 inches
Width: Rotors unfolded: 40 feet, 2 inches
Rotors folded: 10 feet, 3 inches
Height: 9 feet, 11 inches
Weight: 10,000 depending on load.
Armament: 1 20mm. Four barreled minigun (chin turret), 3 internal hard points for ATGMs, AAMs, or 2.7in. Missile pods. External attachment points for additional ordnance or fuel tanks.
Avionics: Integrated FCD, multifunction LCD displays for sensor and instrument readouts, FLIR and Light Intensification in forward sensor turret that follows pilots’ head movements. Low profile LIDAR turret for ‘peeking’ above trees and hills and illuminating targets for missile strikes.
Engines: 1x Shrak h-15 rotor (six blades) 1x Shrak-21 counter rotor (six blades)
Cost: $18,650,000
Maximum speed: 235 mph
Cruising Speed: 195 mph
Range: 2,310 mi. (Max with external fuel tanks)
Service Ceiling: +10,000
Deployment: The AH-71 is designated as an armed recon/light attack helicopter
Notes: The Red Kite is the next generation of light attack helicopters. Integrating full composite build and faceted airframe to scatter hostile radar the Red Kite features an internal weapon bay capable of loading most helicopter munitions or extra fuel tanks. For crew protection and increased survivability the cabin is over pressurized and filtered against NBC threats, the entire section is protected from High Explosive and Kinetic Energy attacks while the rest of the airframe can take a hit from anything up to a 30mm explosive anti aircraft round while remaining flyable. The Red Kite can attach ‘wings’ with hard points (1x for each wing) for additional ordnance or fuel. The ‘wings’ can be ejected in flight to quickly revert to a stealthy cross section, additionally the 20mm cannon can be retracted into a fairing to further reduce radar signature. The mast mounted LIDAR array features a very low profile to maintain stealthy profile while still providing the advantages of a mast mounted senor package. The Six bladed rotor and counter rotor gives the Red Kite the lowest acoustic signature of any helicopter in its class. The Integrated FCD is capable of overlaying sensor data on the cockpit windshield and can be easily controlled from the pilot or gunners console, this cuts down on the ‘information overload’ experienced by pilots of the famed AH-64D Apache Longbow without sacrificing any sensor capability. To reduce IR signature the engine is contained in a non-heat conducting ‘chamber’ and the exhaust is pulled through an air-cooled set of arteries running throughout the tail section.


A purchase of 5000 of either of these models would net a 15% discount resulting in appreciable savings for your military budget.

We at MierTech can supply you with the helicopters you need:

MTA-H02 Shard Attack Helicopter
http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/aircraft/images/rah-66-Gearup2.jpg
Though similar in looks to the old Critir helicopter, the new Shard helicopter is much more agile and powerful than it. Taking the basic exterior of the Critir helicopter, the insides have been totally revamped, incorporating newer systems and better weapons. Able to fly further and faster than the Critir, that fact it looks the same works in its favour - the enemy will have no idea ofthe capabilities of it until it attacks.
