not exactly at the time however since it got renamed some changes were made to it, most specifically the THOR upgrade, as well as many of the tested weapons or the ones offered by deihl etc were after 2013 (when the helicopter was redesignated by the GAF).
yes most websites are still using the old name as the renaming wasnt a very publicised event. basically any photograph taken after 2013 is of the KHT.
thanks for reminding me i have to close that since i wasnt exactly sure about the exact modifications done upon the KHT which would warrant a separate aircraft (THOR and 12 PARS loadouts) at that time
although to be fair, like my Flarakrad suggestion, this could just as well be added as a modification/upgrade package like we have on the BMP-1 or BMP-2
well we heard a while go they (gaijin devs) were working on a new top heli for germany, and the H-145M is in the files as an unfinished model, but its been years since both these news
Unless the bundeswehr does the smart thing and converts all its pars 3 lr missiles to the pars 3 sal variant…
This wont be too much better.
(In real life)
And theyre already planning to phase it out)
I hope we get UHT non-PARS3 version (10.0 as tiger HAP and worse than hap because no guns and Mistral). Germany was extremely lack of helicopters in 9.x-10.X battles because there were hardly any attack aircraft available and ground forces were not very good. MI24P was almost completely unusable (they 100% encountered 10M2 type93 and more SAM and mi24p no irst) and bo105s 100% got too high br (AH1 in same br but got 20mm m197 8tow+38 rocket and smaller when 9.7 ah1 got thermal IRCM higher optics(very important) 8Xtow2-BGM71D (800 pen)
If this is truly a helicopter that can be distinguished from the one in game then I emphatically vote yes. German helicopter tree is already so small that they artificially increased it’s grind by adding the same helicopter twice without foldering it. Might as well give more incentive to reach the end of the tree and maybe then Gaijin will feel they can folder the BO 105’s as their grind requirements have been met.
