I just got back from deployment on the maiden voyage of LHA-6 USS America and I had some downtime after my shift, and watching the H-60s taking off and landing inspired me to try and draw up a new helicopter. I tried to make this as a quasi H-60, Eurocopter hybrid. Enjoy.

Interesting looking bird. There's a couple of things that I'd personally change though.

Firstly I think that the fenestron could be slightly bigger in diameter.
Secondly the hardpoints in their current position are going to make dismounting and mounting... Interesting. I'm not sure where I'd mount them though, maybe like ESSS?

Reggiane Re.2000 various AU repaints:

I guess that the historical background for some of these airplanes could be explained if Italy had been neutral during WW2...

Fantastic AU schemes, some of these could easily work as captured examples or as you say as exports. Before 1940 Britain and France and Belgium had ordered Italian aircraft as part of their rearmament plans.

Indeed. When i was drawing the Indian one i thought that, if Italy was neutral, it was plausible enough for the British Raj (with permission of the British central government, of course) to buy some Italian aircraft to quickly and cheaply equip their Indian squadrons.

The Re.2000 wasn't the best aircraft, but it was suitable enough to face the backbone of the Japanese army air force in Burma, the Ki-27.
