Hello, I'm new to the forum and in a pinch. Would anybody have information on where I could find simple military aircraft models, specifically helicopters, for use in SolidWorks? The only one's I've found are high-poly. They would be used only as visuals in a presentation. I appreciate the help!

Can't promise cheap, but this site is a great place to start model searches.  SWx has a hard time pushing polys, so you might want to narrow your search to 'gaming' models in which polygon count is also an issue.

Never argue with an idiot. They'll bring you down to their level and beat you with experience every time.

Where Heckler suggested is a good site. Look in the User Library/misc/aircraft there.
