The only “Huey” or “Hiyodori” UH-1B of the game, to not carry AGM-12 or to not even have GUNPODS
the only loadout is FFAR,…
we can’t defend from airplanes (unless, they’re bad enough to head-on 76 FFAR)
we can’t enter the field to get a shot at anything since Roof MG’s and HE-VT rounds exists,…
all we can do, is spam our FFAR from the heliport,… until an aircraft come take us down or that a PzH2000 shoots us on the heliport, when refilling.
Gaijin really need to take a look at early Helicopter that doesn’t have free use of AGM’s,…
PS: the italian one does have gunpods at the very least (but reduced FFAR loads)

Italian Huey is even worse while the Jap one got a buff just recently.
Starter helis are absolute crap anyway, one 7.7 hit and you’re boned.
the problem is also the fact that there is a lot of IFV’s at such BR’s,…
Roof guns hits hard yes,
but most importantly, rewards are shittier than any other vehicule type in the game,…
as Japanese players, we’re expected to do a grind of 360k RP
instead of 150k for Italian/hungarian Mi-24D
The best game i made today, i got 4 assists and 1 kill over the whole game (only playing the Huey, spamming FFAR from afar, and died once but respawned right away in Huey)
results : 1515 RP and 9804SL
we’re supposed to suffer 360k RP, to get the hell out of here?!
and don’t even start with the arcade special mode:
it’s bad, as Huey needs to close up, AI guepards are laser accurate we can’t approach or we die.
and most of the time, we get stealed by the AGM capable ones.
the problem is present, and should be addressed.

its just a gaijin problem… they dont add more detailed hitboxes to the lowtier helis so when your hull is damaged you might not shoot back
my problem is more about their rewards and gameplay issue, than Damage model and hitbox.
you would get more rewards when you can actually kill someone with this helicopter…
but I agree that the heli rewards are bad
you also need like skill bonus etc to get a good amount of rp for the helicopter which is pretty much impossible for the helicopter which have to be close to be effective… so the damage model plays also a part in the bad rewards…
lol i had a bit of fun with it the other day, sniping tanks with the rockets
so 4 kills for 18 deaths was “fun”,…
i have fun to “snipe” people from 4km (tanks) to 8.5km (helos), but that’s just because it’s the best way to stay alive too.
well noones forcing you to play em lol, just saying it was satisfying sniping tanks
you can play it like this or die while trying to do a sneak up attack against radar spaa
