The Hunter-Chopper Bomb is a timed explosive used in great numbers by the Hunter-Chopper to flush out areas and take down Rebels.
Overview[]
- After being severely damaged, the Hunter-Chopper will attempt to kill its attacker by releasing a large amount of mines as a last-ditch effort.
- In Half-Life 2, a Hunter-Chopper chases Gordon through the Canals and is destroyed near Black Mesa East. It heavily uses its bombs during the chase, and more prominently when being critically damaged.
- In the Episode Two Outlands, Gordon must destroy a Hunter-Chopper with its own bombs by sending them back with the Gravity Gun.
- The bombs are able to float on water, making them efficient against watercrafts such as the Airboat. However, they do not float on toxic water.
- The Hunter-Chopper can contain many more bombs then should be possible to fit inside of it. This may suggest that a teleporter is used to move bombs to the Hunter-Chopper
Behind the scenes[]
- For Episode Two, the model was improved with typical Combine metal and phong.
- On the body of the Episode Two model can be seen the alphanumerics "V952", also featured on other Combine devices.
- In Episode Two, the player can get an Orange Box Achievement ("Puttin' On a Clinic") by successfully defeating the Hunter-Chopper by sending back its bombs without a single miss.
