I don’t know about you but this is getting old jets camping on helicopter landing ports because there is no AA and there should be ground-to-air missiles to keep The Jets from camping on the landing and spawning points So War Thunder get off your Duff and do something about this it’s getting old!!!
Enemy aircraft flying near to the airfield and helipads are spotted on the map. Dont spawn a heli when there’s someone like me sitting in a harrier waiting to cleanse the game of KA-50s with a 9M

Ive recently learned how to toss mavericks so that I can cross-map yeet brimstones with Typhoon so that I can kill helis in even more comical and satisfying ways. Watching a heli panic spam a load of countermeasures as a massive bomb smacks their pilot feels amazing

There were issues with the aa shooting down plane over the battlefield that werent going for the heli pad. Adding missile would just cause them to snipe planes that are not even close to them.
They could add the aa back to the rear heli pad though.
I did that a bit with the harrier and yak141 for the jet spawn. Using the r27et was amazing for that

Its a duty to the game to ensure Helis with 10km ATGMs cant get off the ground
There used to be, but the Helipads are so close to the ground battle, that they would often just delete planes flying over the battlefield.
Helicopters with longer range AGM’s could ‘camp’ in the pads AA range, effectively making them immune from CAP trying to counter them.
(And before anyone says what’s the problem with that, spare a thought for countries like Israel / Japan, who have no means of countering a Helicopter sat at max AGM range, other than spawning CAP).
Harrier hovering over the pad like: 
That.
I prefer the funnier one, that is Q-5L orbital striking ( it works amazingly well btw)
