The Fahr Kohlmann ZH-60 Greyhawk is a Zokesian utility and attack helicopter.
Development
The Confederacy of Kolus put out a design requirement in 2163 for a personell and cargo transport helicopter, to compliment the larger MZ-22-4 Albatross and ZH-53 Super Erol allready in service. While both the Albatross and Super Erol could carry heavy equipment, light vehicles and troops, they were too large to operate on all but the biggest fleet carriers, and could not operate as ASW platforms for the navy or close-air support for the Army. The H-33 Newt, on the other hand, was sufficient for battlefield support but was too small to carry cargo or personell and was lacking in range. The Confederate High Command issued a design requirement for a 8-seat, 20 ton cargo helicopter with 100km range and loiter time of 2 hours.
Design
The ZH-60 was developed in the late 2160s to meet the need for smaller, more intermediate helicopters for the Confederacy, Fahr Kohlmann created a twin-engine electro-turbine helicopter which could operate at range and carry useful cargo to and from forward bases.
Variants
ZH-60L
The standard model of Greyhawk in service today, the ZH-60L is an upgraded model with reinforced rotor heads and capacity for 12 troops. It has two hard points on either door position for defensive weapons.
ZH-60S
The ZH-60S Bluehawk is the naval version of the army’s troop carrying Greyhawk, with folding rotor blades to facilitate hangar storage.
ZH-60R
ASW variant of the ZH-60S
AZH-60L DAP
The army’s attack helicopter conversion for the ZH-60L, the DAP carries additional anti tank armament on the wings attached just above the cargo hold. It has up to 16 hard points and 2 forward firing machine guns for ground and self defense use.
