Fast recon, on the way! BO-105 PAH-1

”

The BO-105 PAH-1 is a West German scout helicopter of the NATO forces.

Overview

The BO-105 utility helicopter is a widely produced and very popular model, and it has seen and still sees wide use in a variety of roles in many nations. As the name suggests, it's best used for fast recon. It's equipped with unguided rockets that can harass the enemy, but the light armour means that you want to keep it far away from anything that can shoot back.

The main selling point of the scout helicopter is the IR-scanning equipment mounted in it. This allows you to spot enemy infantry hiding inside buildings and forests.
