Anti-Air is redundant to use versus hueys. I've flown transport hueys and attack hueys on operation barracuda.. getting hit with 2-3 AA missiles and still being able to make it back to the carrier with no failures.

.50 cals, however, rip a huey to shreds. Maybe increase AA missile damage towards hueys?

I believe their fixing that now

I would hope they could do something about that splash damage in the stinger because what i know of the missile it actually haves no explosing warhead but a sharp thing that penetrates and ''stings'' the target

Also (I don't think I've been hit by an AA missile since .85), do AA missiles kill passengers (at least on Hueys, Littlebirds; helis with exposed passengers) if they explode near them? Or is it the point that they are direct charges or something?

Source for that?

Cos here it says:

The 3 kg (6.6 lb) blast-fragmentation warhead is triggered by a proximity and time-delayed impact fuze.
