MH Warfare
by mrhackmin
MH Warfare adds military drones to Forge 1.20.1, with FPV systems, multirotor and fixed-wing airframes, and ground stations for controlling them.
What it does
The mod covers reconnaissance, strike, interceptor and heavy-lift UAV platforms, each with its own flight behavior, camera systems and HUD/OSD payload capabilities. A ground station acts as the central interface for supported UAVs and missions, linking communications, sensors, payloads and Remote View. Operators can run short-range FPV flights or long-range unmanned missions, depending on the aircraft configuration.
Drone damage is tracked per component rather than through a single health bar, so a hit can cause reduced performance, control component failure, an emergency descent, fire or structural breakup. Video links simulate analogue and digital transmission, each with its own degradation under signal interference. The mod works in both singleplayer and multiplayer. It needs Geckolib as a required dependency, and the Forge file for 1.20.1 is 2.0.0-release.2 from 2026-10-12. The code is not open source; it is released under All rights reserved.
Key features
FPV and multirotor flight
Realistic multirotor and fixed-wing flight models, with FPV cameras and remote drone control.
Remote View
Long-range Remote View lets an operator see entities beyond the player's normal render distance.
Component-based damage
Each drone part takes damage separately, so different aircraft react differently to the same type of hit.
Video transmission effects
Analogue and digital links degrade in different visual ways, and signal interference reduces picture quality.
Thermal and night vision
Day, night-vision and thermal imaging camera systems are available across the supported platforms.
