Do you know why I think that anyone will see a helicopter through a thermal imager?) Because a helicopter cannot use hot smoke screening a thermal imager like ground vehicles with smoke mortars - if a helicopter had such smoke, it would not be able to use thermal imaging elements of fire and a night vision device.
Think about it again ;-)
The whole point of smoke screening is to not be seen you can retreat or reposition, that’s exactly what you want.
Yes, but the smoke trail will move along with the helicopter, and now imagine what a freebie this will be for the fighters - literally yes, I’m here, kill me.
Yet again, they can’t see you if you double back in through smoke, and can only face in the head on, which gives you enough time to act accordingly.
depends on the smoke persistence settings, I doubt that the gaijins will give helicopters smoke that stays in the air for more than 20-30 seconds
let them introduce it, I’m interested in how it will look
