Shithooks are not used as Air Assault platforms. (meaning troops would not repell out of them) They would have to land and debark their troops. This would make them more vulnerable to attack. It would also take 20-30 seconds or so for all the troops to exit the aircraft.
Typically, Air Assault assets would go in first and secure an LZ for the chinooks to bring in mass troops; all with gunships providing cover.
