Tried this out and can confirm it. Requested the Pilotkit and got killed after several seconds on the Kiowas pilotseat. Copilot works fine.

I also experienced on Ramiel map that i can only operate 1 of 2 little birds as well as 1/2 apaches. Black Hawk is unflayable at all.
I tried to pilot these helicopters with standard spawn kit but as expected this didn't worked out.

Those you cannot operate are BOT only vehicles, unfortunately on Karbala, all vehicles are BOT vehicles, at least the flying ones, it's known and will be fixed for later

Be aware this is also the case on Beirut Coop, the Havoc Helicopters are only flyable for bots, but you can use the co-pilot gun system, but most of the time the bots just fly in the water, and kill you.

Those _sp vehicle variants are supposed to be driven only by bots as they have different settings so they can actually do it. Mappers probably need to add the normal variants as well so you can play with them as well.

Only 1 of the havoc's are bot. I've flown around with it, it's fine.

Hi, firstly thanks devs for all the work put into the latest and
greatest patch.
Regarding the bot heli's, this will kill co-op servers, firstly because bots cannot fly (no secret there..), also it makes it hard for new players to train before entering MP servers.
The most frustrating part of the new rule is that many co-op servers
do not have any bot's on the blue team.
They are strictly humans vs bot's, so all the bot vehicles are rendered useless and left parked up unused...very, very frustrating....Muttrah has around 3-4 Huey's and 2 Cobra's that are bot exclusive..makes it hard to get off the carrier
Please fix this in the new patch...
Cheers guys.

I've managed to get one co-op game in and this really frustrated me. Please give assets for people to train with, otherwise the mode seems useless when you can just make all Co-op infantry only. I'm sorry but I'm not happy watching bots play with the new assets and I have to walk....
