    The main problem with the peten is that it has no Missile Approach Warning System, which means any sam can kill you without you ever getting a warning unless you see the missile. The best way to use it is to find a mountain to hide behind and try to mask yourself from the enemy spawn, where most of the AAA is, and then start killing enemy tanks that push to the middle of the map.
    The second biggest problem is the abundance of kamovs. If theres a single Ka50, Ka52, you really cant do anything but hide. They can kill you effortlesly from 10 km away, and you can only sometimes get them if you close to 3 or so km in order to launch a missile.
    I would not recommend it for full price, but for half price I would. At least for me it is fun to try to survive and thrive in helicopters

    This thing struggles more against ka50/52 than SPAA... I found numerous occasion when I just poped up in the helipad and immediately get lased by a kamarov 10km away (this is significant longer than what the longest range all hellfire variant can reach) and seconds later you got shot down

    as a person who buyed this heli: NO.
    the hellfire I sucks. the AGM autisticly pulls manuvers it cant compensate for and ends up missing evrrytime the target moves. i legit had one time where i launch all 16 hellfires and THEY ALL MISSED!
    it gets slaughtered in heli EC aswell.
    its not a bad helicopter, it IS a ah64a copy, but there are way better options for a premium and its BR is nonsensical. buy the german mi24p ot the ka50.
    like seriously, does gaijoob REALLY think this needs a BR equivelant to the ka50?

      I have the AH64A I do pretty well in it, just map dependent not every map is a good map for a heli, unless you are a KA 52 that can stay 10km back and spot with your thermals. So to you I would suggest you watch the youtuber called "Hunter" he is a good heli pilot and watching his videos you will learn how to position your heli for best results. Also hellfires dont work well from close range it becomes hard to track moving targets, youre also not supposed to just lock a target fire and keep it locked because the moment the target moves behind a tree or a pole your lock goes crazy and so does the missile, its not a Hellfire problem its the same with all laser guided AGMs. What you're supposed to do is manually guide the hellfire close to the moving target and lock at the last seconds if you think there are no obstacles in the way now or just manually guide it all the way otherwise. Shoot 2 hellfires a few seconds apart with the first if the target is hard to hit, just make sure to track it by manually guiding the AGM in and then lock it for the top down hit from the second AGM that you launched 4 or 5 seconds after the first 1. oh and be at least 3 to 4 km away from the battlefield for the AGM to track correctly. Often times I stay at 7 kms just for safety although it then makes hellfire travel time longer which ends up being 15-17 seconds, but its safer so I prefer it.

    There are two ways to get good in helis.
    Always first spawn, then camp enemy heli base or air spawn from behind with the nice AAM.
    The other option is, especially at single spawn maps, rushing with unguided missiles in the fight and always stay around 90 degrees over the targets.
    Then make a very quick cannon and rocket attack and get up again.
    Repeat until the enemy team finally gets you (but most won't even with Gepards and stuff) or leave the game because their are so annoyed.

    @Smashmous Před 2 lety +3

    i allways use the 8 Hellfire and 38 Haydra loadout. you dont have the stinger missiles but aggainst players they miss like 90% anyways. you dont need 16 Hellfire. you normaly die bevor you can use them all. but what the Hydra allows you to do is you can lock on to a AA shot your Hellfire at it and you can use your Hydra to shot the AA missiles out of the sky in 3. person, bevor the can reach you because they explode at the range of the hydra rockets. that way you can easy kill AA and stay alive mush longer.

    • @jetnavigator
      @jetnavigator Před 2 lety

      I have this and can strongly recommend it. The downside is that with the constant BR changes is that it doesn't have a good line-up around it.
      If you want 9.7 max, the helicopter is it. 10 is a bit stronger. But frankly, as Gaijin keep stuffing the BRs up, buying ANY premium with the mindset of, "that will compliment my X lineup" is not wise.
      Not being able to have AA missiles at the same time as AGMs is not a problem with thia helicopter. The gun is very effective against close aircraft and the AGMs good against other helis and dumb plane pilots.

    I dont think you had best take on why people get it... It's not really about grinding other helis. It's more about not having to grind them anymore, as you pretty much already have the best heli in US tree. The radar doesnt make as much difference really. KA-50 on the other hand serves purpose of grinder heli as both MI-28 and KA-52 are better helis.
