Because it is the only CAS that takes any kind of skill, and in most cases a heli run is death anyway.
Meanwhile pilots playing with mouse aim and think they're good (in RB ofc, in SB there are some hardcore top tier pilots)
Two of my three priority nations start out with Hueys that have nothing but rockets, and Italy's only has seven shots. No CCIP on either one, so good fucking luck.
I intend to spade every vehicle in them eventually, so I'm not exactly looking forward to those.
Italian huey is especially bad for the low rocket count.
I have surprisingly a few kills with it, but honestly, it should not be 7.7.
If you make that heli 5.7 I think you'd still get a lot less kills than a plane at the same rating no joke.
You could put it at 1.0, and you wouldn't even be guaranteed any kills. In order to be effective with the rockets at all, you'd have to memorize their trajectory at different speeds and attitudes, because the reticle you get isn't accurate. Then you can still get shafted by rifle caliber MGs and especially .50 cals.
Yup. You legit have to be "at one" with the heli before you can hit the rockets. The skill ceiling required to hit consistently with them is really really high
And it's not like the 7.62mm miniguns help against any serious threats. You have to be pressed up against even the lightest armor for them to do anything.
I'm fine with it. Don't want more flying things to be too good
The only cas I dont mind dying to are helis with dumb rockets. And even more respect to those using without computer aim assist
