Gunmaster the AH-1 series Cobra helicopter has an M61 Vulcan varient mounted in the chin turret. the varient is called the M197 and I have added it to the M61 vulcan page already.

When I can find someone with a copy of the origional Bubblegum Crisis series I am going to have an interesting time as the Firebee Minicopters are packing the M197 when a GAU-19/A would be more realistic. Yeah I've seen the series and I have the game and the production notes are really interesting.

The helicopters which attack Hulk are RAH-66 Comanches, which is a stealth gunship that was supposed to be entering service with the U.S. Army at the time the movie was made. But only a year after the movie came out, the Comanche program got canceled.

Actually, the very earliest Cobras had a Minigun and a grenade launcher in the chin turret, but I guess that's just nitpicking.

BTW Rockwolf, you can call me John if you want, it is a lot shorter than Gunmaster.

I don't know anything about helicopters so I'll take your words for it. I'm nabbing some shots from Hulk now, I'll make sure I label them as M197.

no problem John,
We all have our strenghts and our weaknesses when it comes to firearms. Trust me I'm related to a gun collector and while I can get firearms down to a specific family I'm lost when it comes to some of the more numerous subtypes.

We could also do with an AK-103 mounting a GP-30 grenade launcher, as I believe there's a few games that include that combination.

John,
I am going to Remake the GAU-19/A Page and fix all the links so that they direct there. If you still have the info could you re upload the Images.


Thanks

Paul

Yeah sure, but not today. I'm too mad about all the work I lost.

Rockwolf66 04-16-2009 01:25 AM

Could I request a picture of the Vektor CR-1 bullpupped R-4/ Galil assault rifle?

MT2008 04-16-2009 01:38 AM

For the record, MoviePropmaster is not taking picture requests at this moment.

Rockwolf66 04-16-2009 01:59 AM

I know, this thread is about what firearms need Images and it's so that we have a place where anyone who has a firearm Image that the forum does not have of a movie firearm can see what is needed.
