ACH-47 Mod for the CH-47F module. Provides "classic" and "modern" take on the ACH-47 Guns-A-Go-Go gunship concept.
Background: During the Vietnam War four CH-47s were converted into helicopter gunships, the ACH-47A also known as "Guns-A-Go-Go". Ultimately, the ACH-47 concept was abandoned in favor of dedicated gunships, like the AH-1 Cobra. This mod explores the what if had development of the ACH-47 continued into the modern day, and provides similar capabilities for those looking to have an ACH-47A in DCS.
Mod Overview:
1) Adds the ability to mount and fire a variety of armaments on the CH-47F
-Nose Mounted 40MM Grenade Launcher
-Guided Missiles (Hellfire and APKWS)
-Unguided 2.75" Rockets
-Air-to-Air Stinger
-30MM M230 Cannons
-Increases the ammunition loadout for gunners from 600 total rounds each to 1600 each, roughly aligned with the original 1000 rounds per gun of .50 cal ammunition on the ACH-47A (we only have 3 guns on the CH-47F of 7.62MM)
-M2 .50 Cal Door Guns (Single and Dual)
-MH-47 sytle Door Guns (M-134 and M-240 on left & right side simultaneously)
-Twin M-240 (Ramp)

-Ability to drop parachute flares from the rear ramp
2) Requires the CH-47F module to function
3) Breaks integrity check
Note: Also requires the ANDR0ID tech pack for full functionality, see link in download.
