Description

The Donar Assault Helicopter is a versatile VTOL that is useful in a variety of roles. Three tons of Compound A2F Ferro-Fibrous armor keeps it safe from small arms fire, though its rotors are still vulnerable. The well-armored hide nonetheless gives the Donar a good survival rate in low-altitude crashes. Like most VTOLs, the Donar is fast, capable of achieving up to 151 km/h.

Armament

As its name suggests, the Assault Helicopter excels at softening an enemy up at range, using its Series 7J ER Large Laser, then darting in to scour an opponent with its twin Pattern J2 Streak SRM-2 launchers. While the Donar was originally commissioned to provide quick fire support, its missiles are effective at exploiting the holes that its laser can open up.

Variants

• Recon - Only two combat vehicle variants are in normal use by the Clans of Kerensky, and this reconnaissance/scout version of the Donar is one of them. Most popular with Clan Goliath Scorpion, the recon variant replaces the missile launchers with an Active Probe, ECM Suite, and TAG. This enables it to find hidden units, then call down artillery on them. BV (1.0) = 1,169, BC (2.0) = 808
