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.
