Dragonhawk

Dragonhawk

The Dragonhawk is a fictional attack copter vehicle used by the G.I Joe forces in the series . This vehicle arrived just in time to provide Scarlett, Duke and Snake-Eyes when they were having some difficulty with Cobra troops (Zartan and the Dreadnoks). It was revealed to belong to Lt. Stone, a friend of Duke's. Along with the copter, he provided the team with a seafaring base of operations.

The Dragonhawk has twin turbines which provide VTOL (Vertical Take Off and Landing), forward thrust, and in a quick pinch, reverse thrust. In addition to combat support, it also functions as a drop ship which provides transportation for some of the smaller vehicles in the Sigma 6 fictional world, like the V.A.M.P., the Night Ranger Quad, the Ninja Hovercycle, the Barracuda Jet Boat, and the Dune Runner. It also has a troop transport for the team.

The Dragonhawk's offensive capabilities include three missile launchers above each landing skid, twin 60 mm cannons, and a Gatling gun located just below and in front of the cockpit. Defensive capabilities include rotating each turbine to face opposite directions to activate an energy shield that repels both lasers and missiles.
