UN Huey UH-1C
« on: January 16, 2013, 09:53:13 AM »

This UN Huey is my newest project. Inspired by a request by Preussen for a white UN huey skin.

We do not have the exact Huey model portrayed in his photo, but thanks to Max-thehitman's template, there is a choice of UH-1B or UH-1C. This pair of UN themed skins represent UH-1C machines. I looked well, and as far as i can tell, ALL early UN helicopters were invariably WHITE. However, since i could find no photos of these early model hueys in UN service, the tail fuselage numbers where chosen by myself and do not represent any particular aircraft.

These are great as AI helis (targets for strela )

I have personally found that i enjoy building and flying small helicopter missions like overwatch for the river craft, and these UN white choppers are great for missions where you are performing rescue or relief efforts. ...Or battling pirates on the shipping lanes!

Here they are! Even got some UN Blue helmets for you! Pack has two helicopter skins. On ehas the UN on the sliding door, and one has it on the Pilots/Copilots door.

get them at: https://www.mediafire.com/?7e11eos2wzkbvqp

!!UPDATE!!
Here, as promised, are the UN helmets for the door gunners: https://www.mediafire.com/?vvhf4svtcachofr
the new file should be dropped into the folder: #DBW/Huey-UH-1B_Gunship/3DO/Plane/Huey_Gunship
...!!AS BEFORE!!... if you decide to use these, be certain to backup your original file first incase you decide to take the UN helmets off. Enjoy!

For helping me know what the heck i was doing with a .tga file :

I have included the Blue UN helmet in the download. If you want to use it, you have to drop it inside the textures folder located at:
#DBW/Huey-UH-1B_Gunship/3DO/Plane/Textures
MAKE SURE YOU BACKUP THE ORIGINAL file.tgs somewhere first so you can replace it when you need to. You wont always want UN blue on your crews. Would look a little odd for Army Rangers i think.

Thanks everyone! ENJOY!!!
