Re: Shooting down Helicopters?????

bs all you need is 3 seconds to blow up the chopper if you are good with the jet cannon

thats even faster then a TV missile lol

I've always used the guns mounted to the cars(jeeps etc.)

Re: Shooting down Helicopters?????

in order

1. Jet Cannon
2. TV Missile
3. Mobile AA
4. 50 Cal.
5. Jet Missiles
6. Ground AA\Stingers

The jet missiles shouldn't even be on that list. The missiles go right through helicopters EVERY TIME, even when your ping is low.

You have a bigger chance at dropping bombs on the helicopter than shooting it down with the missiles.

You mean come up underneath them...?

When I said "missiles", I meant the jet's missiles, not the TV missiles.

Yup jet missiles, come from underneath the chopper.

Assuming that you are on the ground, first AA and then 50 cal are the chopper's biggest enemies.

So fun to do, in the rare occasion they hit. 1 bomb doesn't take out a blackhawk for some reason.

AA missles aren't bad, but the stationary ones pretty much suck - but you can get lucky. AA vehicles are awesome for choppers, but you're better off if you can catch them unawares - I like to set up on their egress routes back to base to repair. Chances are he'll already be damaged and easier to take down.

I also like the vehicle mounted guns - particularly if you can catch them focusing on something else. A lot of times the pilots won't even realize that the're being hit until it's too late.

Mounted .50 cal that can spin 360 degrees.

I would imagine that's very hard to do, considering most helicopters fly low.

not as hard as you think, on alot of wake servers the blackhawks go very high to avoid j10s and such

There's no point of that...

A) Go slow*.

B) Go high.

C) Shoot from as far as possible at the windscreen.

* Make sure of no J10s.

If you shoot from view-distance, their fate is decided roughly as the first jet cannon bullet hits the windscreen, plus it doesn't give them any time to react (as opposed to coming close). No need for missiles at all.
