Ok One more suugestion me and a squad had a good discussion about this when your heli has taken serious damage you should still be able to land it somewhat safely and the pilot should be able to grab like and M4 or something from the back Cause I mean in real lif they do have extra weapons in the back.

Been suggested, but the devs say they don't want 2 pilot kits.

Black Hawk Down, Mike Durant had an MP5K, which they reffered to as "Skinny Poppers"

m4's arent much stronger than an mp5 really

I'd never heard of weapon storage in the back of these helos but if its there its there i guess

Yes, US helicopter crews do carry M4s in the cockpit.

This has been suggested before, but welcome to the forums. Just do a quick search before making a suggestion in the future. :)

Well, if the devs did make it possible for the helo to just spin out and not explode from extensive damage, and allowing it for the passenger to either take serious damage or die, then it would make sense to add a Helo pilot kit that doesn't include a parachute, just M4, maybe signal smome, and a field dressing.

To make this think more stupid:

Choper Pilot kit-M4

Plane Pilot kit-something smaller !!!

I've ruined the thread XD.......dont get it personal !

LOL
Targeted ads ....for "mobile hanger " which looks like a drawing of what the well equipped terrorist would use to transport a light attack helo into a major metro area.

I rather see the heli crashes tweaked, so you stop getting turned into insta-charcoal.
Then again, it still depends on your enemy - will they anihilite you or just mess up your tail causing you to crash-land and make a mini-BHD drama :p

There anyway of having 2 m4s as pickup kits hidden in the model somehow?

Maybe make another kit labeled "Survival Kit" that is only requestable from choppers? and that can be requested only when the chopper is shot down or in that blown up state.

P.S. That Kiowa looks like its in a bad way... The pilot also looks to have a pistol on his belt hanging out of the door.

if the M4 was givin to pilots maybe give it only 2,3 or at most 4 mags of ammo?

2 mags. max. that way you know you're screwed.

I say keep the pistol, that way the pilots will try to avoid getting shot and do what they're supposed to do; evade.
