Helicopter vulnerabilities?

[bassist05 69]

I never played when they were around so what can destroy them?

I assume a 50 cal can destroy them, but what about lmgs? Can the mk 48 destroy a chopper too?

Being a Arma II Pilot at times I can tell you this...

Enough rounds can destroy ANY Helo

[alec167 62]

anything can destroy a helicopter its just how you use the gun is how fast it goes such as like shooting the pilot takes 5 seconds or shooting the back blades

The pilot seat is hard to hit.

Would suggest the back rotor, the top rotor, or the engine blocks.

If you hit the engine blocks enough the helo will go right down, and unless the pilot is skilled enough to be able to land that thing (Which CAN happen, I've done it before.), then that should be a good multi-kill, but as I said, if the pilot is skilled, he can auto hover and hit the ground softly.

Oh, and there is two other spots. Forgot what they were named or where they are but...

The first one messes with the controls of the pilot, causing the Helo to go in a spiral type thing, easy to land but if you do it over a forest they're fucked.

There is also another where if you hit the Fuselage, there gas tank will empty very quickly. They can only get about 7000 meters on a FULL tank before having to land, and if they are going fast, they are fucked.

So basically if I unload my mk48 at a helo its going to go down? :P

In a nutshell yes. You'll probably hit something vital.

Thanks. I wish I'd known that when some hackers spawn a huey in a few weeks ago and murdered me. haha

If you can, I would suggest the back rotors or the rotors on top. But if you have lmg and have enough ammo, then light that puppy up!

I always carry two belts for my mk 48, so I'm pretty set. haha

Should be able to ruin some clan kiddies day soon. :)
