Description
Mod Description


The most famous ww2 helicopter, the G & H versions are the further fictional transport & gunship versions of the Fa 223 Drache design. These variants move the engines to the sides to increase passenger capacity in the cabin, while the gunship variant comes equipped with stub wings for mounting machine guns & rockets pods as well as a roof mounted MG34 turret for protecting the rear of the craft. Though initially just issued to mountain divisions, its strategic value was quickly realized and became widely adopted as a troop / cargo transport. While the gunship version was built shorty after to escort groups of transports to, & help clear, the landing zone. It wouldn't take the germans long to seen their full potential either and before long they were sent out on their own to support other units in conflict.

These Helis were built for the mod konflikt 47. If you have any questions, suggestions, or would just like to know more you can find more info on its discord page https://discord.com/channels/1085106824967102464/1122160618129068072

Questions & Answers
Q: Why isn't this "mod" showing in the launcher/ how to spawn it?
A: This isn't a "mod", its just a composition, and wont show in your launcher. You'll find this composition in the editor, once there you need to press the groups key or F2 then click on the composition icon. last pic in the slideshow above will show were that is.

Q: Why is it spawning all broken up?
A: You need to click off Vertical Mode & Surface Snapping before spawning any comp, last pic above shows were to find it. Also rotating it in the editor can cause it to come apart.

Q: Do i need all the mods?
A: JM SA is only needed for the rear turret & banner. O&T is only needed for the gunship weapons.

Q: What maps were used for the pics?
A: Alaska (Aftermath)
Svartmarka post-war (Northern Fronts)
Streets of Berlin (IFA3)

Q: How to fly?
A: It's controlled by a darter UAV, it is designed to be controlled from the pilot in the driver seat. The pilots have UAV terminals by default.
