The EC 220 Gadfly is an infantry transport helicopter in use by the European Federation's Enforcer Corps.

Overview

Built by the same company that makes the PAH-6 Cheetah, the whimsically named Gadfly is a reliable light transport helicopter that can endure harsh weather conditions and is surprisingly nimble for its size. Its unique engine can run either hydrogen or fossil fuels.

Trivia

• The Gadfly appears to be a modernised version of the real life NH-90 helicopter, to which it has a similar appearance.
• The "EC" designation would suggest that the Gadfly is built by Eurocopter (renamed Airbus Helicopters in 2014).
