Patch 2.24.12 Applied:
Quick turnaround on this one. Details of what's included are as follows:

Fixes
  • Fixed an issue where the Turret weight was not being shown in the readout for Combat Vehicle BASE OmniVehicles.
  • Fixed an issue with superheavy 'Mechs where the proper amount of ammo ,when multiple were stacked in the same slot, was not properly output in MegaMek files.

Changes
  • Changed how information related to armor (type, technology, and model); both main and location-specific, is stored in the database for easier, more consistent, retrieval.
  • Created an Alpa Strike Stat Block table in the Summary section that displays all Alpha Strike stats as they are updated when designing units.
  • Added the Combat Vehicle Escape Pod for use with all combat vehicle types.

NOTE: Any forces or units impacted by the above fixes and/or changes have had their stats recalculated to ensure accuracy.

================================================================================================
Overview:
    The type 5 LUH, or Light Utility Helicopter represents a common model of a light militarised
    rotorcraft built for speed and some minimal transport capacity with emphasis placed on quick
    turnover rates, reparability and modular techlology allowing for fast mission profile
    change. While generally not worth to pack in vehicle bays it takes only minimal space in
    cargo bays and is virtually ubiquitous within militas across the Inners Sphere and the
    periphery. It's true pinnacle came after the clan invasion with the introduction of the omni
    technology which allowed an unprecendented degree of part interchangeability.

Capabilities:
    The main asset of the Type 5 is speed. At neraly 250 km/h it can quickly move about the
    battlefield. The armor is minimal. Barely enough to protect the helicopter against single
    glancing hit, but usually enough to protect the craft against personal weapons. There is
    only enough room for about 1500 kg of equipments in the internal space and on external
    hardpoints, although the helicopter is robust enough to carry ome additional cargo in a
    pinch. Unfortunately the low tech nature of the limits the ability of the Type 5 to operate
    in hostile environments, but most planets without breathable atmosphere are ill-suited for
    VTOL operations anyway.
