If the Brigade Models Caribou (according to Tony of Brigade Models who is my
guru in this matter) is a size class 2 vehicle what would you call the various
GZG models of VTOLs?

It all depends. I use the general rule of thumb that the scout
helos/light gunships are class 1or2, attack gunships are 2 (except for
the Hind and Hip those being class 3), troop carriers class 3-4

Is the model a Attack helo/Vtol or a scout helo?  Is it a troop carrier,
if so how many troops, etc.?

I would design the UH-1heuy and its various model to include the AH-1
Cobra (It is a Huey with a redesigned fuselage).

IT ALL DEPENDS HOW YOU DESIGN IT. I can take the same model ad we both have
two different class sizes for it and we are both *right*.
