I've noticed while playing Iron Gator, that if you drop a supply crate on the essex, you do not have to wait for the AA to reload. The supply crate constantly replenishes them. So, you can sit their and fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, and on and on without a pause in the action. I haven't tried this in vanilla, but it would be interesting to test.

Originally posted by Iwantcable3 supplies makes it so it gets replenished faster than you can shoot. Too bad the missles never hit anything anyways...

Originally posted by Heavy552(AWG)Sure they do, just fire one then wait 3 heartbeats and fire the next. Spacing out the missiles provides the server with enough time and space to guide the missile into the jet.
I don't know about this, but I just keep firing till it says you killed...

As far as surviving tv hits with three supply crates... First, is it even possible to have three supply crates, without one blowing up first. Second, I think a TVM destroys all, maybe you didn't receive a direct hit.
I actually saw the health bar go empty, the destruct sequence animation start and stop instantly as the health bar snapped back full. I had 4 crates that day. I proceeded to shoot the amazed heli down and then the next two planes that came in.

I can't confrim vanilla but in SF this is not possible.
For three reasons:
No planes (most obvious)
4 crates (questionale even in vanillas)
destruct sequence (is there such a thing/ if so post it)

2) I've seen 3 crates at once, so I think 4 would be odd, but possible
3) I'd like to see a "destruct sequence" as well
