The name of the chopper isn't important, it's always _my_ chopper.

I'm fairly sure I've heard AH-1Z "super cobra" outside of the game.

Besides, i've never heard the "viper" designation before.  I believe the US operates Apache, Cobra, and soon Comanche attack helicopters.

The viper is just a modded version, but I'd still call it the cobra.

Hmmm...in that case, someone ought to edit the Wiki.

The AH-1Z is called the "Super Cobra" over there.

Yeah, the Comanche is gone. I don't think the AH-1Z is called a Viper. I know the F-16 is. It's a freakin' Super Cobra.

i still stick to the name cobra, because the chopper is another modification of the original cobra series. and the callsign viper might be just the projects name - but the way it gets called by the majority might be another...
The official designation is Thunderbolt, but the majority of those dealing with them call it the Warthog because they think it's ugly.
Thunderbolt II. The original thunderbolt is the P-41 from WW2. As the poster above said, the Warthog is just the nickname.
FYI, the P-41 was only an experimental plane. the P-47 was the original Thunderbolt. The A-10 was named after the P-47 due to the two planes' similarity in effectiveness of ground attack and ability to take a beating.

Actually they call it the warthog because of the grunt-like sound the A-10's gau-8 cannon makes when it is fired.

I agree. When im on a server its my chopper anyways regardless of who thinks its theirs. So if i play with any of you and your waiting for the chopper and i join the wait make sure you ask me if you can get in with me. If I say no then its no.

The F16 is called the Fighting Falcon.
And no. The AH-1W is the Super Cobra. The 1Z is a modernised version.

As with many aircraft, they do get multiple nicknames by the Military Designation and Pilots pet names.  Many older aircraft are re-named when newer upgrades are added.  I.e. the F-16 Fighting Falcon/Viper, A6E Intruder/Prowler(which is has a longer fuseloge and avionics pack), F-117 Nighthawk/Wobbly Goblin, F-105 Starfighter/Widowmaker, and so on.   The A-10's pet name (warthog)fits it damn well as it can pretty much root out anything that's dug in deep with it's gun. 

Getting back to the Chopper, It'll most likely always be called Cobra, because that's what it's known as from it's inception.  Even though it's a Super Corbra, Viper or whatever you wanna call it.
