The "HERO" model for the Chinook is now complete and includes a fully modelled cockpit and rear cargo area.

The Chinook will also be the first helicopter to use the advanced engine system which will model engine torque and rotor RPM and allow for effects such as retreating blade stall, VRS etc.

The new engine system will also split engine sounds such as turbine, main rotor, tail rotor etc into separate channels which will change the way the helicopter sounds when viewed from different angles/distances.

But for now, here are some renders...
