Hi, i'm here (once again) to suggest a little modification to the pilot kit.
I'm religiously listening the "Military Channel" all the time, and i do realise that the US Helo Pilot carry M4, so is it possible to give SMG/M4 to pilot kit ? i do known AIRCRAFT pilot carry a pistol, but since there is only 2 maps whit aircraft (Kashan/Quiling) and even then, Kashan is more played in 32V, i was wondering if may be pilot can get it, like M4 1+1Mags... or MP5 1+1Mags. That would give more chance to the pilot for survive and made hes way back to home/extract.
Comments?

Re: Give M4/SMG to pilot kit.
It's a pretty bad idea, as it'd encourage pilot paradrops further. People already do it far too often, and giving pilots an actual viable weapon would mean everyone would be doing it.
Also, helicopters are aircraft too

Re: Give M4/SMG to pilot kit.
resuggestion
1) pistol is great ingame
2) enough people waste tickets as paratrooper already
I don't really care what the pilot gets, but how many pilots survive being destroyed every day in PR?
Jets...maybe, but afaik they carry 9mm
helos...nope, not really, there is a good thread on increasing HP to increase the likihood of crash landing, but chopper pilots only seem to get out when they've gone so high so that they could jump out and waste the chopper anyways

Re: Give M4/SMG to pilot kit.
Since realism should be the way here I agree, especially if helicopters get the HP change.
Apache pilots/gunners in afghanistan carry and L85 carbine and a Pistol with alot of ammo as well as first aid, flares etc that kind of thing, as they are important targets.

Re: Give M4/SMG to pilot kit.
IF at all, have 2 pilot kits. Helicopter one with L85/MP5/M4/ZBBQ* but without parachute, and jet one with pistol and 'chute. Not both in one, that'd suck.
*name is a joke. Dunno the correct name of the chinese carbine right now.

Locked for resuggestion.
The key to modernising any weapon is covering them in glue and tossing them in a barrel of M1913 rails until they look "Modern" enough.
