Helicopters

A list of helicopters and their allowed use in Theseus operations, how well they support Advanced Flight Model (AFM), ACE3 fast-roping and other information.

• Only important for the helicopters players use (what the AI uses does not matter).
• Standard helicopters are marked with a 🚁, they should be used primarily as per the Theseus SOP.
  • Compositions with standard helicopters are available in the Mission Template.
• Mouse over the helicopter name to see the class name form.
• If a helicopter is missing, leave a message in #dev-missions channel on Slack.

• ✔️ All features work, all advanced handling features present (VRS, rotor damage/loss, RPM limits), is stable and has pilot animations.
  • Ideal choice everywhere.
• ➕ All features work, but advanced handling elements, stability or animations are not present.
  • Good choice everywhere.
• ➖ One or more AFM features (analog throttle, gauges) does not work or is missing.
  • Non-Contracts only! Avoid if possible (allowed as switch to SFM is automatic).
  • Must be noted in the mission briefing if used!
• 💥 Helicopter explodes on entry if player/client has AFM enabled.
  • Banned! Exploding helicopters are useless, switching to SFM is easily forgotten.
