History

While the Empire has some of the most well-trained special forces in the world, even the Terracotta Trooper cannot take on an entire army alone. Because of Elsword's mountainous terrain in the north, tanks were out of the question. After discarding various concepts (such as mountain terrain walkers and airships), the Empire settled on using helicopters, borrowing the idea from the Voshkod. Work started right away on a helicopter that could operate in any weather condition, engage multiple types of ground units and transport troops.

After about a dozen failed prototypes and twice the number of men killed in disastrous crashes, the WA-11 Helix was born.

Basically, the fuselage was based off the Krasna KA-32 heavy-lift transport helicopter. The design possessed coaxial rotors to provide high lift and a diesel nuclear hybrid engine to improve range and speed (which was copied from a Voshkod example). To allow it to support the men it drops onto the battlefield, it was given a 12.7mm gattling cannon and a pair of grenade launchers.

These weapons gave the Helix comparable firepower to the Twinblade, and although it cannot lay down devastating rocket barrages like the Twinblade, it can constantly bombard the target with grenades. Though the Helix is much slower, it can take considerably more punishment than a Twinblade, which was considered a fair trade-off.
