Would you want HELICOPTERS in future expansions?

Hehe, that would be so cool. Da dada dada Da dada dada.... (kill the rabbit)

Why not? There have been quite a few helictopters been active during WW2 already.







just a few examples and all of them saw active service during WW2 (not in active combat roles, though).

Actually the Hoverfly did fly in combat, it rescued some folks in Burma where it was deployed, and because of it's size (could only bring back a couple guys at a time) had to spend the night on the ground in the combat area before flying out with the last men the next morning.

I do not know if I would call SaR operations actually active combat. That's what german choppers did, too, foremost in alpine environments. Also with a bit of recce thrown in.
Actually, the Drache was planned to be used in the special operation to free Mussolini, which would have made it the first SpecOps choppers. Only technical difficulties prevented it from doing so.

UP 3 already has some helos in it.

Voted yes, as long as it's in the proper theater in a future expansion (Korea, Vietnam, etc).
