0005776: USAF CH-47 Cargo ramp control destroys vehicle while in flight
The fantastic CH-47 Cargo craft appear to have a bug. If vehicles are loaded using the VIV system and the ramp is opened mid flight, it will either severely damage or destroy the vehicles. It also removes the ability to unload the vehicles from the menu.

Interestingly, when the ramp is opened, the vehicles shift backwards in in the chinook, suggesting they've changed position or are no longer considered loaded but rather physical models in the vehicle somehow.

Flagged as major, as infantry has a bad habit of liking to play with the ramps.
Step 1: Spawn a CH-47 Cargo, woodland or desert.
Step 2: Load two MRZR's into the back
Step 3: Observe that the pilot can safely open and close the ramp on the ground. (Uncertain if this removes the unload option)
Step 4: Take off.
Step 5: Select open ramp in menu
Step 6: Observe the ramp opens, but the vehicles shift inside.
Step 7: If the helicopter survives, observe that Unload All Vehicles is no longer an option.
Happens in Single Player and MP so we can rule out de-sync

If I had to guess, the vehicle position resets to a default when the ramp opens. Some things I'm going to try:

Does it explode when the ramp is opened with no vehicles
Does it explode if the ramp is opened with one vehicle
Does it explode is the ramp is opened with cargo?
No tags attached.

That's on purpose - CH-47 can be also loaded by driving vehicle inside (custom old script) and ramp is detaching vehicles when it's opened. Vehicle loaded via ViV are basically attachedTo so script is correctly detaching them. You can still safely level ramp mid flight
