That's an Alouette III not the II. The I never went into production.

You're right, what Psilander has slected is the Alouette II, whereas in my opinion the more suitable would be the Alouette III; its still the skids and limited capability that influences me.

Well the Alouette II did appear with wheels at one point so it's not all bad points though I agree the Wasp would indeed be a more suitable choice for shipboard operations considering it was designed for the job.

I would be very interested to see this, as I haven't (so far) found a naval use for this helicopter

Thanks :) On this evidence a navalised version would be feasible.

Why don't you simply use the HKP2 that I used on the Göta Lejon in the camo-version? I've already navalized it and all...

It look very much like onw I drew a long time ago, I've just changed the colors from green to grey/ blue as all my shipborne AU helicopters.

But I do like your HKP 1.
