For context I am using it at 11.7 with the al-khalid, anyone got tips or a guide on how to use it? I really struggle against the AA and every bmpt/2S38 firing at me
Ive managed to get good games with it but only when the enemy was not using all of their brain
It’s a very nimble helicopter, however having rather slow missiles you’ll have to learn where to position yourself, always keep at least one pylon with TY-90 air-to-air missiles, flying low is the best tactic with the Z-19E considering it’s maneuverability. Being limited to < 6km you’ll have to reach very close to the map, open fields will have its advantage of no obstruction from you to the target but you may be the target as well. In maps like Sands of Sinai use the mountain rocks in your favour to get closer to the enemy and always avoid open areas as you’ll be easier target for infrared-guided munition.
Considering BA-9 is rather slow for its battle rating, just because you have the helicopter in your line-up doesn’t mean you need to play with it all time, for that you’ll have to undestand if it’s worth the risk of using the helicopter in said map, if the enemy has airplanes presence or if the enemy is in advantage in the ground (which usually means less anti-air vehicles presence). At this moment, no premium helicopter is really worth unless is a very specific thing you want, to research helicopters a ground vehicle will be more rewarding at the long term, which the Al-Khalid I is perfect for such task, you could research Z-10ME only by playing ground vehicles.
