SH-187 'Stealth Helicopter'

The SH-187 was developed under the name 'PROJECT DIBBUK', whose goal was to create an aircraft with superior range and ceiling to its predecessors, in addition to being a stealth craft. The aforementioned requirements were very important to Majestic 12 military operations, which were often secret and illegal. It is known that some of the advanced components for the helicopter were improved versions of Chinese developments in this field.

The SH-187 is the peak of 21st century technology. It is powered by high-efficiency Ethanol fuel cells, that give it a flight range of over 9000 miles or about 15,000 kilometers. In addition, it incorporates advanced thermoptic technology that renders it invisible on 97% of the non-visible spectrum. Thus, detecting the helicopter is an extremely difficult matter. The effect of the system was described by a Chinese police officer: 'its skin seemed to absorb light, like that of a shark in the deep ocean'.

The SH-187 was designed as a multipurpose platform with various mission capability, that can operate in enemy territory for extended time. Therefore, it can be remotely disabled or even scuttled, in case it falls into enemy hands. It can also function as a gunship, and carries missiles of unknown kind.
