==Description==
The '''Donar Assault Helicopter''' is a versatile [[VTOL]] that is useful in a variety of roles, similar in concept to the [[Inner Sphere]]'s [[Warrior (Combat Vehicle)|Warrior]]. The helicopter is operated by a pilot and copilot/gunner seated in a tandem configuration, with a limited amount of redundancy in both positions should one or the other be knocked out.  Three tons of Compound A2F [[ferro-fibrous]] armor keeps its safe from small arms fire, and its rotary blades will remain operational even when hit by 40mm caliber weapons. The well-armored hide also gives the Donar a good survival rate in low-altitude crashes. Like most VTOLs, the Donar is fast, capable of achieving up to 151 km/h.<ref name=TRO3060/>

Typically used as a scout, [[Clan Hell's Horses]] also field the Donar as an anti-armor and fire support vehicle, while [[Clan Steel Viper]] use Donars as mobile support for their infantry.  The [[SLDF#Second_Star_League_Defense_Force|Second SLDF]] was able to capture a number of Donars from [[Clan Smoke Jaguar]] during [[Operation Bulldog]].<ref name=TRO3060/>

*;Recon : Only two [[combat vehicle]] variants are in normal use by the [[Clans]] of Kerensky, and this reconnaissance/scout version of the Donar is one of them. Most popular with [[Clan Goliath Scorpion]], the recon variant replaces the missile launchers with an [[Active Probe]], [[ECM Suite]], and [[Target Acquisition Gear|TAG]]. This enables it to find hidden units, then call down [[artillery]] on them.

*;Close Support : [[Jihad]] revision of the Donar, which only retains its armor and engine from baseline chassis.  The Close Support been given some [[Technology Rating|Advanced Tech upgrades]].  Used as spotter and recon unit, the Donar been given front-mounted [[Light TAG]] and has an [[Active Probe]] placed in a rotor's [[Mast Mount]]. For weaponry, the vehicle now has pair of front-mounted [[Heavy Medium Laser|Heavy Medium Lasers]]. Regular SRM Streaks have been replaced by pair of Streak SRM-2 [[Improved One-Shot Missile Launcher|I-OS Launchers]] also mounted in front.
