If you have to change the Z-8 at all, for the love of god give me a better view!

'[R-DEV wrote:Eddie Baker']A 160th SOAR Chinook was forced down, but not destroyed in midair, by multiple RPG hits during Operation Anaconda. So, they can definitely take more than one.

As for the Z8, who is to say that the PLAN marines aren't the ground force on the particular maps that it's on? :roll: Although they aren't really armed with rockets. Thanks again, EA.
well, dont remember where (youtube or liveleak) but i saw a video where a chinok was hited by one missil (looks like a rpg , because the trayectory was a Straight line) , the rotors star to burn , and the chinok lose altitude , crashing finnaly in a forest .

and about the Z8 thing , the current skin of the PLA looks lik the camo of the PLA army , not the naval one .

It's makes a difference if the RPG hits near the engine or only in the hold.

the chinnook was taken down by an SA-7/AA missle

and i agree with bubba, it really does make a difference to where the RPG hits

my cousin is currently flying a chinook in afganistan with No.33 Sqd RAF
chinooks are BIG armoured fkers, they dont come down easily UNLESS hit in the rite position

also my uncle was taken a tour of a chinook when he went to my cousins base, and guess what they have for self defence.... the M134 Vulcan minigun
i think there either 2 on the sidedoors or theres 1 fitted to the ramp at the back

just imagine......*drool*
