Patch 2.24.13 Applied:
This was done last night, but just getting around to making the post today. Details of what's included are as follows:

Fixes
  • Fixed an issue where performing a search on Alpha Strike damage values would sometimes cause the processing dialog to hang.

Changes
  • Changed how information related to structure and communications (type, technology, and model), are stored in the database for easier, more consistent, retrieval.
  • Changed the Source field (available to Admins only) to be a lookup instead of a dropdown.
  • Added the Minesweeper as equipment now available to combat vehicles.
  • Added a '#' button just to the right of the 'Add Equipment' button during design of units. This will allow you to quickly add a user-specified quantity of the equipment currently selected. This is particularly useful when wanting to add many shots of ammo on ProtoMechs.

NOTE: Any forces or units impacted by the above fixes and/or changes have had their stats recalculated to ensure accuracy.

================================================================================================
Overview:
    The type 5 LUH, or Light Utility Helicopter represents a common model of a light militarised
    rotorcraft built for speed and some minimal transport capacity with emphasis placed on quick
    turnover rates, reparability and modular techlology allowing for fast mission profile
    change. While generally not worth to pack in vehicle bays it takes only minimal space in
    cargo bays and is virtually ubiquitous within militas across the Inners Sphere and the
    periphery. It's true pinnacle came after the clan invasion with the introduction of the omni
    technology which allowed an unprecendented degree of part interchangeability.

Capabilities:
    The main asset of the Type 5 is speed. At neraly 250 km/h it can quickly move about the
    battlefield. The armor is minimal. Barely enough to protect the helicopter against single
    glancing hit, but usually enough to protect the craft against personal weapons. There is
    only enough room for about 1500 kg of equipments in the internal space and on external
    hardpoints, although the helicopter is robust enough to carry ome additional cargo in a
    pinch. Unfortunately the low tech nature of the limits the ability of the Type 5 to operate
    in hostile environments, but most planets without breathable atmosphere are ill-suited for
    VTOL operations anyway.
