fade into obscurity most likely, they’re already mostly irrelevant sans the occasional ground crawler raging a rocket Ka-50 got 1 kill in 10 games.
If they gave OH helicopters a scouting mechanic and fixed the 58’s MMS I bet we would see more helicopters
Nobody is grinding a Kiowa for passive gameplay that can done with a scout drone
Of course not. Because they were never given the mechanic that was their primary job on the battlefield.
They should function like a light tank though. That was their entire purpose, and why they aren’t AH-58’s
If heli scouting functioned as light tank scouting it would actually be good, and that’s why I don’t see it being implemented that way
I’ve always wanted heli scouting though, mostly as an excuse to add the OH-1 Ninja.

There really isn’t a good reason not to add the mechanic. Just need more call for it.
Same with EW and recon airplanes.
