Can only lock them if they are heading straight on towards you though, any other way its GG, especially with only 2 missiles and no cannons
again at least you can lock them and have a chance of shooting the one aimed at you
yeah i guess
Eh… I’ve heard of so many issues with the IR guidance of the FnFs from loosing lock and the Spikes doing bugger all damage because they always hit centre of mass (plus the amount of ERA) that its largely irrelevant. Helis are fairly universally weak, but the combo of never having to see Pantsirs, one of the more tanky airframes and only of the best helis launched AGMs at the moment, I think they are still solidly number 1 still. At least its still the soviet helis that I see spawned in the most.

Then don’t come crying when other nations get their toys. That is just pathetic.
It’s still much, much easier and more reliable to just drop down 10m and dodge the missile that way, without losing any of your ordnance. AAs would have enough time to fire two missiles before your second Vikhr reached them. This is all assuming your first one would actually intercept the missile.
So, MMW Brimstones? Typhoon only carries 18 of them.
It will 100% intercept the missiles fired by AA, the second or the third will definetly hit the target.
and yet you have an option that other SAL only helis dont have, if there is any competent AA up then hellfires are useless unless someone else distracts them
How but they start Adding FMG 148 Other nations have spike it’s about time we get our missiles
They have their downsides, of course.
But you also get 16 of them that you can just fire off and forget about it, go back to rearm and do the same thing over again. AAs won’t be able to touch you as your exposure time is minimal.
Pantsirs are nothing special against helicopters, ItO can mostly do the same job against them.
Kamovs are the best if there are no AAs around, otherwise I don’t really think so.
I’m not talking about SAL helicopters being the best, rather FnF ones.
Yea sure. Also bring Pantsir with 40km Missile. And Radar FnF for everyone too.
yes but Vikhrs are much more effective against tanks than spikes while being much more effective against AA than any SAL heli

Spikes are definitely making up for that with their numbers and ease of use.
Israeli one can spam dozens of missiles in just a few minutes with little worry about AAs.
You gonna counter my points or what?
nope, because there is no real counter, there is nothing in game even close to 38mt in performance and it seems like every patch they are adding a better launch platform for them

Your point its retarded. That is why i don’t even bother to counter. Same with you Aim9x argument.
