Credits for the building style ofc go to @sKyCoS and @MomoDesigns as well as @Hatsy for the turret functions n stuff. Go check out some of their stuff, they’re great builders! Enjoy the heli!!

Background (Wiki)

The Changhe Z-10 is a Chinese medium-weight, twin-turboshaft, attack helicopter built by the Changhe Aircraft Industries Corporation for the People's Liberation Army Ground Force Aviation. Designed by 602nd Aircraft Design Institute of Aviation Industry Corporation of China and Kamov Design Bureau, the aircraft is intended primarily for antitank warfare missions with secondary air-to-air combat capability. The plan to develop a medium-weight helicopter program was initiated in 1994 with the attack helicopter program formally beginning in 1998. The preliminary design of the aircraft was provided by Kamov, while prototyping was conducted by the 602nd Aircraft Design Institute of Aviation Industry Corporation of China (AVIC). The Z-10 first flew on 29 April 2003 and entered Chinese Army Aviation service in 2009.
Nicknames of characters in the Chinese classic novel Water Margin have been used to name Z-10 and its light-weight counterpart, the Harbin Z-19 by Chinese Army Aviation Corps; Z-10 is called Fierce Thunderbolt , the nickname of Qin Ming, while Z-19 is called Black Whirlwind, the nickname of Li Kui.
