Overview
The Mohawk found extensive use with the civilians of Altis for cargo operations and also, to some extent, as a passenger transport helicopter due to its high capacity and fairly cheap price when compared to a Huron.
- Roles:
- Passenger Transport
- Cargo Transport
Design
The Mohawk is a triple-engine helicopter with decent armour around the frame of the helicopter. Due to the triple engine setup and very bulky air frame the mohawk is considerably less manoeuvrable when compared to the other commercially available helicopters. Notably, the design incorporated a tail rotor that is positioned much higher than normal to prevent damage on landing.
