Hammerhead

A curious element of the GDI air arsenal, the Hammerhead is a conventional helicopter. This is perhaps an extreme example of GDI's trend of returning to old, but extremely reliable technology following the Second Tiberium War.

The Hammerhead was equipped with two intermeshing rotors, giving it immense lift, rocket pods, as well as twin automatic cannons that could plough through enemy infantry. In addition, the unit has the capacity to carry a single infantry squad inside, which allows the squad to attack from the Hammerhead. This allows infantry to attack from the air with their weaponry. Intel suggest that transporting a missile squad adds an anti-air role to the Hammerhead.

Recent intel suggests that the Hammerhead cooperates well with Orca Gunships when used together.
