Agusta Westland AW101 SAR

The Agusta Westland AW101 is a medium-lift utility helicopter used to perform a variety of roles for several civil operators and nations, including Britian, Denmark, Norway, Portugal, and Algeria. It was developed in response to requirements for a modern naval utility helicopter, and has since replaced the older and venerable Sikorsky Sea King in a variety of roles.

This particular variant of the AW101 is painted with the livery of the SAR service of the Royal Nowegian Air Force, with a few personal touches.

The 'Merlin', as it's sometimes called, has flown around the world in combat, as a SAR and cargo helicopter, and as a transport helicopter for offshore oil companies, and is incredibly safe and reliable.

It seemed perfect for this game.


Features:

-winch
-rear cargo door
-movable stretcher
-7 seats in cabin
-1 pilot seat, 1 copilot seat
-SAR nose camera
-touchscreen mini-map
-plenty of first aid
-altitude and position hold
-defibrillator (not for pranks)


Notes:

-Honestly, I wasn't quite sure how to feel about this one when I began working on it, but I love the look of it now

-Not only is the paint on the outside accurate to the real Norwegian SAR version, but the inside is accurate as well
(as much as I could make it with quarter-meter blocks)

-To preserve looks, the radar is non-functional at the moment (as of 7/19 it now works on the displays but still does not function as a radar)

-It's also to scale to the real one



As promised, the Canadian version, the CH-149 Cormorant is now available here:
