Download and install both the Apache Datapack and resource pack for this to work.

This is for Minecraft Java 26.2 only.

The map shown in the videos on youtube is Military Base Island by ATOM_14A

Here is the Walkthrough

Feel free to join the discord to report any bugs, suggest ideas (even other datapack ideas)

Getting started

Where to get items

In your crafting table you will see all the receipes for these items:

Assembly Pad (Building Station)

Derrick (Crude Extractor)

Refinery (Turn Crude into Fuel)

Gas Pump (Take that fuel from the refinery to actually use the fuel)

Jerry Can (Carry fuel)

Crude Barrel (Used in the extraction and refinery)

Using Helicopter

You place down the assembly pad and fill in all the items that it requires to build the heli.

Then you will need fuel for the heli, so you need a derrick to pump out crude, make sure to have a crude barrel with you.

Then once the barrel is full you take it and place it at a refinery, which then converts crude into fuel.

To then use that fuel get a Gas Pump and place it within 12 blocks of the refinery, you will then be able to fuel your heli or pump fuel in a jerry can to then carry it with you.

CONTROLS

Mouse: Steer and aim

W/S: forward pitch/breaking and nose-up

A/D: low-speed pedals and lateral trim at higher speeds

Space/Ctrl: Climb/descend

Double tap W: boost

Double tap S: hold position

Right click: fire weapon

F: change weapon

Q: flares

Sneak: Exit

Hold S while stopped on ground: shuts down engines.

Realistic Flying Physics

You can place a derrick anywhere, but the best place is in a badlands or desert, where you get 'sweet crude' giving you twice as much fuel duration in flight. My suggestion is have some crude barrels and a derrick in a desert or badlands and simply go and fill up there then bring back to your refinery at your base so that you can get quicker access to fuel.

The helicopter also has a cargo bay at the back (look for the nametag of it), where you can transport anything necessities such as a jerry can for fuel.

This is a 2 seater helicopter, where the first player is the pilot, and the second a gunner. The pilot can still shoot weapons when there is a gunner with them.

Weapons

Cannon with 500 rounds, if you hold too long you will overheat it for a couple seconds.

38 Rockets

4 homing missiles

24 carpet bay bombs

8 flares - Flares divert homing missiles aimed at you

Repairing

When your hull is damaged, your heli is affected by that, and reach under 25% and your fuel starts to leak.

You can use iron ingots to repair upto 50% by right clicking on the heli on the ground, but to get it to full, bring it to a assembly pad, it will auto detect that there is helicopter damage and switch to the service bay for you to repair.

Going into the water opens a raft where the heli stays on top of the water, you have to then drain it by holding space. You must bring it to a assembly pad as fast as possible since your weapons will be malfunctioning due to the water damage, your cannon wont be able to shoot well, keeps jamming, your missiles and rockets will shoot where they want and your carpet bay wont open.

I must emphasise that all explosions do NOT destroy blocks.

If you run out of fuel mid-air, use Ctrl as you fall to preserve rotor RPM, then S near the ground when the HUD says S - FLARE NOW. Holding space thinking it will bring you up drains the rotor speed and makes you plummet to your death.

This datapack was ai-assisted ! The amount of work that went into this project was already in the hundreds of hours, if I hadn't had ai help it would have taken me 3x as long xD

If that triggers anybody, I apologise; on that note if there are any 3d modelers who would like to help in future projects feel free to hit me up !
