It's well done, been thinking that the new Support Vehicle Rules will better show cargo choppers then the combat vehicle rules allow.
Though you can cargo more with VTOL lifting it via a sling style loading then direct cargo.
Overall a decent VTOL.

Lots of cargo can be moved through the air with this, looks easy to use.

Easy to use and to shoot down. 
Where'd I park my Partisan?
Only thing is the internal cargo bay, Chinooks don't have one. They just have this space that's missing helicopter.

Like all V. T. O. L. s, ...
Normal Chinooks may not have it, but Mk XX can

The Chinook (20th/21st century) is a heavy tandem-rotor transport-helicopter and certainly has a cargo-compartment!

I don't know about that, since I don't know what the support vehicles rules are capable of. I do know, however, that there isn't a HeavyMetal program that designs them.

Not internal. It has it's frontal area wwhich is cockpit and crew area. also it houses the engine to power the front rotor set. The rear area houses the second rotor set and also stabilizing wings. The center section is merely a spine that connectsthe two sections together while allowing cargo loads to be brought up within the airframe's parameters when grounded. Also iirc the tranaxle that powers the rear rotor runs along the spine as well. They are a rough ride for those who've ridden single rotor choppers before.

The Boeing CH-47 Chinook has a cargo-compartment.
Your helicopter reminds me of the Sikorsky CH-54 Skycrane, but this is a main-rotor-design.
Go to Google and type "chinook helicopter" or "skycrane helicopter" to get some pictures.

The Chinook has a cargo compartment, but it also takes heavy sling loads. That's what it was designed for.
edit: check a few pictures, at the end of the page.

Yes! Most Helicopters have the ability to carry
something under their fuselage.
