Wilco Augusta/Bell 206 Marine One textures
This is a repaint for the Wilco Augusta/Bell 206 as Marine One. The current VH-3 helicopters used by HMX-1 are aging and in 2002 the VXX competition was started to find a replacement. The helicopter selected was the Lockheed Martin VH-71 Kestrel, a derivative of the AgustaWestland AW101. In April 2009, the VH-71 program was cancelled due to cost overruns. In February 2010, the Navy issued a request for information to the aviation industry. The V-22 Osprey is also being considered and as the Augusta/Bell 206 is being released for Commercial use in 2010, hopefully it will too. Repaint by L.T. ‘patchz’ Davis.
