About the helicopter

The UH-1C XM-30 is easy to fly and operate, and thanks to its great optical sights, you’ll be able to take out enemy ground vehicles from a distance with its TOW missiles. The UH-1C also features other ordnance options such as minigun pods, FFAR Mighty Mouse rockets, and powerful experimental 30 mm XM140 cannons. But the most interesting weapon that this helicopter can carry is the nose-mounted 40 mm M75 grenade launcher, which can come in handy when firing at open-top ground vehicles!
