You know why not a Jayhawk. Would be awesome to have something in USCG livery and BBi already has the basic mold, just a few alterations etc., fresh paint scheme, and there ya go. A Hind would be a for sure for me as well as the Bell MASH helo. A VN era Cobra would be nice but doubt would ever see that.
G'day All
I'd like to see:
Boeing CH-46 Sea Knight (Vertol)
It's not as big as the CH-47 and has a lot of interesting paint oppurtunities, here are but a few.
Used by the US in Vietnam painted olive drab or in Navy blue, also still in use today in the two tone greys or in the Marine land cam of greens and greys.
Swedish Navy Vertol in that snazzy Swede Cam looks great.

Hi-Viz Canadian yellow.
But don't forget any of the following:
Boeing CH-47 Chinook
Again Vietnam to now but much wider use by a lot of other nations
Bell (Boeing) V-22 Osprey
I know it is not technically a helicopter but just way cool and close enough for my liking.
Sikorsky (Westland) SH-3, H-3 Sea King
Far too many paint opportunities to mention.
Bell UH-1H Iroquois (Huey)
The real Heuy trooper!
Bell AH-1 Cobra
But a snake from the Vietnam era
Sikorsky S-58 "Choctaw, Westland Wessex
Lots of paint opportunities as well.
Karmov Ka-50 Hokum
Just way cool.
Mil Mi-28A/N HAVOC:
Also way cool.
Mil Mi-24 Hind
Nuf said...........
Hughes (McDonnell Douglas) OH-6 Cayuse
Again Vietnam era with a bungee mounted M60 gunner in the back and the pilot operated minigun mounted on the left.
Eurocopter Tiger
And not only because the ADF uses them, but that is as good a reason as any

Now there are so many others helicopters that are out there but these top my list.
