Helicopter CrateThe Helicopter Crate can hold 44 different items. It only comes from the Patrol Helicopter when it is shot down.
Chance is for one container opened or one body looted: the chance the item is inside. Amount is how many when it is there.
| Event | What happens |
|---|---|
| Patrol Helicopter | Up to 4 when it is shot down |
Across procedural Rust server maps, Helicopter Crate is a world loot prefab featuring 6 inventory slots as a direct-open container that draws from 44 possible item entries through dynamic world events, vehicle encounters, missions, or seasonal drops. Every drop row in the reference table above is compiled directly from the game's internal loot trees at build time to reflect vanilla survival rates.
In addition to per-item drop probabilities, stack size bounds, and spawn durability ranges, the Helicopter Crate sheet tracks expected container populations across every monument layout on the island. Solo players and clans can compare guaranteed Scrap and component returns per container open and plan monument routes around yellow, green, or red recyclers across the wipe.
Opening Helicopter Crate in Rust reveals 6 inventory slots drawn from 44 possible loot items across its weighted drop table, with per-open odds, stack bounds, and durability ranges listed above.
Helicopter Crate (interactable box) appears through world events, vehicle encounters, missions, or biome loot points rather than at static monument spawners, rolling its 44-item drop table whenever players trigger the encounter.
Helicopter Crate does not grant a fixed guaranteed Scrap stack on open, supplying Scrap either as a rolled item among its 44 possible drops or by recycling the components it contains.
Helicopter Crate is an indestructible interactable container in Rust that survivors open directly with the Use key (E) without dealing weapon damage, making noise, or wearing down tool durability.
Because Helicopter Crate is tied to dynamic world events, destroyed vehicles, missions, or biome spawns rather than a static monument spawner, fresh containers appear whenever that event or world cycle triggers.
Each item percentage in the Helicopter Crate loot table shows the exact chance of receiving at least one stack of that item from a single open, calculated across all weighted sub-tables in the game files.
Firearms, tools, or armor pieces in the Helicopter Crate table that roll with partial condition show their exact durability percentage span next to their drop odds, whereas resources, Scrap, and components spawn intact.
