Let me see it carry the same humvee with a 50cal plus its ammo 4-5 troops and there gear then il be impressed :P

Hell after that you could simply fly have your troops stay int he humvee and the blackhawk could drop you into a city street and off you go :D no landing required..

and sure as hell doesnt take so long to get from point a and point b and kick some ass

[forrest225]

@SilaceWarrior I think this is more for the "Shit, they just RPG'ed my humvee, I need a new one" type situation.

:)

[SilaceWarrior]

@forrest225 Haha, good point :D

guys i live on ft rucker alabama, we TRAIN ALL helicopter pilots, blackhawk carries troops and supplies, and is a medivac bird too

[stevekatkus]

wouldn't it suck to have left it out of park and it started to roll down hill once released and theres nothing you could do about it?

[AmishGamer]

that would suck and be halarious (probley spelled wrong).

[dcbSub]

Yeah it really would... LMAO

[alainencabo]

hey guys!

better watch the movie "black hawk down"..

[Wolfstuka]

actually I think the blackhawk has an internal payload max of 9000lbs and externally on the hook of 22000lbs

[Lintassimilator]

Yes you're right, the Apache is a "gunship" and its for combat only. It's essentially a flying tank, and its not designed for anything else. It has a max payload of about 1,700lbs depending on various other variables like engines and such so it wouldnt be able to carry very much, from a hypothetical point of view of course.

Altho I cant see how you would mix up the two, they look very different from eachother, maybe google can provide some diagrams and pictures for you

Good luck :)

I don't think thats a blackhawk, blackhawks are for combat not payloads, black hawks can't lift stuff that heavy

[Lintassimilator]

As a helicopter enthusiast I can tell you right away, that is a blackhawk helicopter and nothing else.

A blackhawk helicopter can carry an external payload of 9,000lbs on a warm day, while your standard HMMWV has a curb weight of about 5,200lbs, even if we put on some extra armor on it (+2,000lbs) it's still a perfectly acceptable payload.

Blackhawks are not for combat anymore than they are for delivering ordnance and troops.

That's all I have to say, thankyou :)

[dereileak]

sorry, I didn't know that, I was thinking of a Apache Longbow, because me and myfriend were talking about them and I got them mixed up, just one question, a long bow probably couldn't do that right?, because those are meant for combat, thats y I got it screwed up, My bad, lol

@Lintassimilator Correction. A Gunship has the ability to transport troops while maintaning its assault role, a MI-24 Hind is a gunship, so is a MH-60L, but a AH-64 Apache is a no-no.

[izrealestness]

@Lintassimilator what kind of choppers do they use now?

[himmler251]

@izrealestness same as always, chinooks,blackhawks, kiowas, apaches, and some hueys
