Check out my MH-60L DAP build to see the FRIES (Fast Rope Insertion/Extraction System) mounted on the cabin roof. It doesn't interfere with the MGs at all.

If you mean the .50 cal MGs mounted in the doors of the MRC/Academy MH-60G, they are incorrect. Rarely, if ever are they mountd there on operational helos. I have only heard of it being done once on a test helo just to see if it would work. First off, you only have 2 crewmen in the back. With all their gear, extra ammo, aux. fuel tanks, and rescue gear, there isn't room for anyone else, let alone the two extra MGs.


Again, post at FSM and you will get more info and help than you can handle.
