The Orca sports decent manoeuvrability and speed considering its bigger size and light armouring making it a better transport than the [[MH-9 Hummingbird|MH-9]] in terms of protection but sacrificing the ability to have 4 bench shooters. Its loud engine and rotors make it easily heard unlike the [[MH-9 Hummingbird|MH-9]]. | The Orca sports decent manoeuvrability and speed considering its bigger size and light armouring making it a better transport than the [[MH-9 Hummingbird|MH-9]] in terms of protection but sacrificing the ability to have 4 bench shooters.

The Orca was CSATs answer to the [[MH-9 Hummingbird|MH-9]], sacrificing benches for a fully enclosed cabin with light armour. Despite the added weight and size, the orca still sports decent manoeuvrability and speed. CSAT also included countermeasure flares to defend itself against any inbound missile threats unlike the [[MH-9 Hummingbird|MH-9]]. The Orca also sported the ability to have two pylons added to the side of the aircraft allowing it to be fitted with various armaments, however these are not available anymore. | The Orca was CSATs answer to the [[MH-9 Hummingbird|MH-9]], sacrificing benches for a fully enclosed cabin with light armour.
