SOURCES:
Specifications have who I sourced from:
Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell_AH-1Z_Viper
Imo every suggestion needs a good source to back things about the aircraft up, and on the Bell website there is a handful of pages on their helicopters and the details of them in a brief yet constructive PDF. Wikipedia gives a good detailed explanation with (most of the time) good sources to back up their statement on things, and the AH-1Z page had a good list of specs.
(Seriously though, Bell has a awesome website. Should check it out.) https://www.bellflight.com/
