Summary	0004417: Russian helicopters and planes exhibit strange behaviour

Revision	2018-08-19 14:58 by Mr. L
Description	Russian helicopters barely use their ATGM's. They rather use their unguided rockets and even canon (if they don't have unguided missiles equipped) from a far away, even though they have ATGM's. They used to attack vehicles pretty regularly using their ATGM's, even from like 1-2 km's away, but over the course of the last few updates, they have progressively ceased using them and stop attacking from farther distances. If I ever see them using their ATGM's, it's like one and done and only from a medium distance (like 900 meters or so on a flat surface and I didn't even notice it apart from the virtual reality or the desert plain on Altis), and up close (600 m and in) they just use their unguided rockets with horrendous accuracy - missing a target by hundreds of meters. And if they don't have the unguided rockets, they just use canon instead, completely ignoring their ATGM's. US helicopters on the other hand use their ATGM's regularly even to re-engage several times. For instance, Ka-52, which is exhibiting the worse behaviour, just circles aimlessly around doing nothing until it gets shot down by enemy tanks. The same goes for russian planes, but they don't use their anti-tank rockets (KH-25's and 29's) at all.
