Battlefield 2042[]
— In-game description
The RAH-68 Huron is a vehicle featured in Battlefield 2042, added in Zero Hour season. Players can unlock the vehicle by reaching tier 11 in Battle Pass. Afterwards, players can unlock both types of helicopters simultaneously after completing certain assignments. It is the United States equivalent of YG-99 Hannibal.
The RAH-68 is a fast but fragile and high maneuverability helicopter with its distinctive stealth mode that can be used for evading guided weapons. The vehicle comes with Heavy Machine Gun Pods and Air-to-Ground Missile in normal mode, and HE Bombs in stealth mode for pilot. The gunner has access to Suppressed HMG and EMP Field Grenade to harass ground targets, the latter is an effective means of countering enemy vehicles.
Unique to the RAH-68 Huron and YG-99 Hannibal, when activating their Stealth Mode, the external weapon bays retract, engine noise is dampened, and the vehicle becomes untargetable by the enemy's laser designation and lock-on weapons.
The default primary weapon are Heavy Machine Gun Pods. 30mm Cannon Pods are an available choice that has higher damage but lower velocity, rate of fire and faster heat build up.
The secondary weapon is the Air-to-Ground Missile that requires lock-on before firing. Optional choices are the AIM-9Z IR Missile for fire-and-forget, and Wire-Guided Missile that can be manually guided by pilot.
Players can unlock Missile Countermeasures and Repair System to increase survivability of the vehicle.

Trivia[]
- The RAH-68 Huron in Battlefield 2042 is an amalgamation between the hull of the Bell 360 Invictus and the coaxial rotor mechanism and tail of the Sikorsky Raider X, both being submissions to the Future Attack Reconnaissance Aircraft (FARA). Its designation followed with RAH-66 Comanche, which was cancelled in 2004.
- RAH-68's name in game files (as well as in Portal editor) is "Shoshone". Both of them referenced Native American tribes and followed the nomenclature of US Army.
