SWR Productions Forum _ Rise of the Reds _ Which Helicopters can transport Vehicles?

Posted by: TheSilverHands 23 Sep 2019, 6:29

Quick question:

Which large helicopters can transport most vehicles (dozers, humvees, small vehicles, small tanks, etc.)?
When I use large transport helicopters in Zero Hour or Shockwave, I either carry dozers to other supply areas or have a bunch of vehicles to gather in an area and have a quick second front against an enemy base.
I am well-aware of the Star Lifter, but I am wondering if other factions have units that can air-transport more than infantry exclusively?
From a realistic standpoint, Star Lifters should be the only unit that can legitimately carry vehicles (and a plurality of them as well). But there should be helicopters in EU armies or Russia in real-life that can carry at least one vehicle.
Generals powers (green berets and humvees, acolyte tanks, VDVs and BMD-4s, unmanned Russian vehicles, etc.) can do the job too, but these units are free and are not from unit-production structures, giving added value to these generals powers along with placing them at different locations on a map.
Alas, it would be nice if perhaps helixes or a large EU or Russian helicopter unit are able to carry at least one vehicle to and fro on a map.

The base game only allows star lifters to carry tanks of any sort,

However, there are submods with modifications if your Interested
Check the SWR discord for more details, we're a fun bunch

I am pretty sure Hinds can carry vehicles
Same for Hooks
