The hitpoint selections for the CH-67 Huron have a duplicate that appears to be a mistake. There are 2 instances of main_rotor_1_hit representing both hithrotor and hitvrotor hitpoints.
Normally these are named main_rotor_hit and tail_rotor_hit on other helicopters such as the Taru to represent hithrotor and hitvrotor respectively.

Steps To Reproduce
Spawn into the editor with the CH-67 Huron and a character.
Load in and look at the helicopter.
Run the following in the debug console while looking at the helicopter
getAllhitpointsdamage cursorobject
Paste the results somewhere else for convenience.
Observe that that there are two instances of main_rotor_1_hit representing both hithrotor and hitvrotor.
Normally hithrotor is tied with the main_rotor_hit selection and hitvrotor is tied with the tail_rotor_hit.

It really looks like an error
For class HitVRRotor value in params name and convexComponent should be replaced by main_rotor_2_hit
- this hitpoint exists in the model but apparently has been forgotten to use
- for now when 1st rotor destroyed, the helicopter engine will stop working as if both rotors have been destroyed, although the 2nd one is still alive and the helicopter can continue to fly (drop into uncontrolled rotation if the speed is low and continue normal flight if the speed is high), so simulate a real-life situation
- 2nd rotor will be destroyed even when there was no any damage to that rotor
At the moment if the first rotor is destroyed the game will think that the second rotor is destroyed too due to configuration error described above
Indeed, if in class HitVRRotor value in params name and convexComponent replace by main_rotor_2_hit then the helicopter will behave logically when one rotor gone - the second rotor won't be automatically destroyed
Here's a vid with an attempt at a visual explanation → https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=meZzfc3hg8c

it is programmed in the engine to destroy second rotor if first is destroyed, I will look at config to see if it actually gonna make any difference
