📋 About This Mod

This mod was originally created by Cuba. I am simply editing it, and improving it. 

Replaces the original Support and Pickup Helicopter used by Snake, with the Pickup helicopter used by Snake in Ground Zeroes.

What improvements have been made?:

- Removed hovering glass left over from the original Support/Pickup Helicopter.

- Added the extendable doors from GZ. (Not movable 🙁)

- Removed the strap that sticks out of the doors. (still visible in the first image)

- Moved pole in the middle of the seats a bit back. (To avoid conflict with cutscenes and player model intersection)

- Moved pilot inside the helicopter model. (still visible in the first image)

- Add alternative door version that moves the bottom doors to be attached to the top one. (check pictures)

- Added expansion at the front to look better for Quiet and DD.

Check the changelogs tab to see changes made in newer updates.

As I have stated, this mod was not created by me, I am simply adding onto it and uploading the improved version.

Cuba said it is allowed to make improvements as long as he is credited, I will remove this upload if asked however.

Thanks OldBoss with helping me with some material issues!
