Description For Christmas, here's a heavy lift helicopter. It's based on the Sikorsky S-60 Skycrane, the first prototype Skycrane ever made. Personally, I prefer these over the S-64, simply because of how unique they look.

My idea of the version with miniguns was that they fly in after the airstrikes that take down most of the AA weaponry and completely tear up the infantry below. Alternatively I thought they could also be escort helicopters that will shoot things on the ground that pose threats and cut a path.

I love the miniguns. Hell, why not mount a 105mm howitzer and make this thing a budget AC-130?

Well, it's kinda for landing support and clearing a small landing zone. A 105mm howitzer would blow the helicopter back in the sky, and also there would be too little room, and it would be highly impractical.

We could still try lol.

I also kinda wondered whether or not a sky crane could absorb the recoil

I was kinda inspired by the liberator gunship from Planetside 2: www.youtube.com/watch?v=GtbNCA…

Don't you ''X3 google it'' to me  ...I woud take that fancy one, im sure what model am i talking about, but i seen it many times in some luxury firms offering transportation from airport.I like UH and SH series too but....there's something about that eurocopter, it has a really smooth design (the one im thinking about).
