Very nice Blackbuck. Reminds me of the Augusta A.129 but sleeker and with more low-observable features.

Thanks. To get the template for it I took a variety of modern gunships apart in photoshop and combined them into a coherent design.
The tail is part Z-10 part Tiger. The engine nacelles and filters are part Rooivalk and part Tiger and the forward fuselage is a mix of Rooivalk and Tiger.

That's what I would think a homegrown British design for an attack helicopter would look like.

In case you don't know the Kaiserreich legacy of the weltkrieg alternate timeline, i recommend you to read about it:

because that AU inspired me to draw these profiles:
