Technical and Historical Data
Probably the most conventional looking of all Zeon aircraft, the Gunship Heli is the tried and true attack helicopter of the Universal Century. Discarding the tail rotor, Zeon engineers decided to opt for two contra-rotating rotors to provide the balancing of torque which allows for the short stubby tail end of the aircraft to house a series of vectored air thrusters that allow it to maneuver quite well.

As an attack helicopter, the Gunship Heli is well armored and powered, and can be laden with an absurd amount of ordinance that would almost allow it to topple a small nation with ease.
