Title: Mi-26
Post by: ddarz on 27 Aug 2002, 12:03:03
Has anyone thought of making a russian Mi-26 chopper.
According to the Guinness world records book ;D its the largest chopper around with a takeoff weight of 56 tonnes and a length of 40 meters. It can carry the same amount of soldiers that a C130 plane can or 80 strechers with wounded!!!
Cool huh?
That would definitly improve the East air arsenal.
(A Ka52 would be nice also)

Always nice to see near-finished models.
Not just a bunch of polygons, and the author saying: I'm working on [Insert Model Name Here], I don't know when it will be finished"

you know i was thinking with resistance, you can open the rear doors of this baby (ive seen it done) and also set an eject point (like on the chinook u can eject front and back) at the back and so the pilot has the option to open the rear doors and let the peeps eject

that would be cool.

Wow a nice big fat juicey target in a multiplayer game for sure! Imagine shooting down one of those babies with the whole of the opposing side on board!

Bring on the stingers!  ;D

I wouldnt want to be flying in that but it would be good for cutscenes and doing large assualts.

The one that went down recently was carrying 126 soldiers if I remember right....that's almost a company of men...which is insane.

I heard that most of the men survived the crash, only to jump out of the wreck into a minefield....that's horrible. :-\

Post by: Messiah on 28 Aug 2002, 17:21:02
although i think the official standpoint was they all died in the crash - russia doesnt want their citizens hearing about their mighty army crashing into a minefield

anyways - any1 like my openable rear doors idea?

maybe not.

Sure that idea is good if you can walk in or out and  perhaps drive a UAZ in the back perhaps, but would it work?  ???
Title: Re:Mi-26
Post by: Messiah on 29 Aug 2002, 01:40:14
nope that wouldnt be possible - but when it comes to paradrops - you could set the exit/entry points at the rear doors - and the pilot could open them before the jumpers jumped

 :D yeah i like the idea of that!

any chance of maybe being able to hang a bmp or something under it? like with a rope sort of thing.......how about making it like another weapon hardpoint or something, and the pilot can choose to drop the bmp onto the ground, then the crew could jump out and get in.  ???

So? How is it coming?
Can't wait to see it finished

sure, can be with a script, like the chinook carrying a object, with a rope...
