The MH-60L Blackhawk is a capable 8-seat medium transport. Along with the UH-1H and the two Chinooks it is one of four here with Cabin Mode. It also has sliding cockpit windows, one on each side, that open and close separately. The pilot sits on the left.

Variants

Cabin Mode

The Blackhawk uses the same Cabin Mode as the UH-1H:
  1. Sitting as pilot or co-pilot, look back towards the cabin to bring up the Move to Cabin action
  2. Use it, and your character gets out of the seat and stands in the cabin, travelling with the helicopter as it flies
  3. You can walk about, use weapons and aim down sights as normal
  4. Return to Cockpit puts you back — into your own seat if it is still free, otherwise the other one
Only the two cockpit seats get this action. Passengers already get out into the cabin with the normal “Get Out”. You stay crouched in the Blackhawk’s cabin; only the Chinooks and the Ospreys let you stand upright.
Cabin Mode was fully reworked in v0.2.8 and is ON by default. crew.cabinModeEnabled defaults to 1, so the Move to Cabin action is available out of the box. Server owners can disable it globally by setting crew.cabinModeEnabled = 0 in mod_config.json — when off, the action does not appear at all.
See Cabin Mode for full details.

Sliding Windows

The Blackhawk has a sliding window in each cockpit door:
  • The left and right windows are separate — moving one does not move the other
  • Look at the cockpit side glass and the open/close action appears. It is instant — there is nothing to hold down
  • Everyone sees the same thing: when one player slides a window, every other player watching sees it move too
  • There is no restriction on when — in the air, on the ground, engine running or not
  • Window opens and closes are written to the activity log when logging.activityLog = 1

Landing gear

The Blackhawk’s wheels are fixed. They do not fold away, and there is no landing gear action on this aircraft — only the AW101 Merlin, the Mi-24 Hind and the two Ospreys have retractable gear.

Wheel classnames

Door item classnames

Each variant has matching door classnames — append the livery suffix, e.g. CZ_MH60LBlackhawk_Pilot_Desert, CZ_MH60LBlackhawk_Pilot_AustralianArmy, CZ_MH60LBlackhawk_Pilot_UnitedNations, CZ_MH60LBlackhawk_Pilot_Navy, CZ_MH60LBlackhawk_Pilot_FireRescue, and the same pattern for _CoPilot, _Cargo1 and _Cargo2.

Chin Camera

The pilot or co-pilot can look through the camera in the nose with J: day, night vision and thermal, zoom up to 40x, and mark a point on the ground for the crew. The seat flying the aircraft needs Auto Hover or the autopilot on. See Chin Camera. The Blackhawk also carries a cockpit radar — see Cockpit, Radar & Warnings.

Default Flight Tuning

These are indicative dev-tuned defaults and can change between builds — the in-game Admin Panel always shows the live per-helicopter values.
See Per-Helicopter Settings for a full description of every parameter.
