    Hello! This mod is a meshslap of @stefan750 's UH-60 Blackhawk Helicopter(found here): https://www.beamng.com/threads/fixed-and-improved-uh60-black-hawk-weaponized.100890/
    This mod simply changes the model from the previous mod to the model of the MH-60 DAP helicopter from war thunder. I modified the jbeam to match the mesh better, and it can fly and maneuver as well as the UH-60. I moved the weapons as well to place them in the "correct ish" position. I managed to get an animated interior started as well, with working yaw pedals, joysticks, and collective levers.

    Main issue that I have found with it, is that while on the real MH-60 Blackhawk the tail rotor is tilted to the side, I cannot get this working on this mod. I have tried tilting the jbeam of the tail rotor, and it breaks stuff. And trying to offset the flexbody or use a prop to fake it, also does not work. For now, unless I can figure it out(or if anyone else knows how to fix it) the mesh for the tail rotor has been rotated to match the jbeam. This breaks the realism a bit because the tail rotor slightly floats.

    Let me know of any bugs!

    Any chance you can meshslap the bell407 into a robinson r44? I do alot of baja chasing with that heli but the r44 would be more like real life

    This is probably my favorite mod so far. I did notice a few things with it. Rotor blade audio fades out shortly after take off. Resetting the heli brings it back but only on ground. Another is your pedal movement is actually how you would work the main landing gear brakes. The yaw movement for the pedals is an alternating slide forward and rearward. As you push the left pedal away from you, the right pedal moves towards you and vice versa. Also not sure if this was intentional or a result of the war thunder model but the main rotor blades are extremely rigid with an extreme blade pitch angle at neutral collective position. Not trying to be nitpicky because this and stefan750's is what I've been wishing for a while. I also work on similar variant of this bird and would be happy to answer some questions if you had any.
