Design

The helicopter is designed to operate in any weather, and has advanced navigation technology. It can carry up to eighty fully-loaded soldiers into battle, or as much as 30,000 kilograms internally or externally. It was designed with survivability in mind as well, resulting in a highly-advanced warning system. The countermeasure system includes flares, chaff, and electronic jamming systems.

The aircraft also features a long-range radar housed in the nose.
