Re: ATGM vs Helo
I've run into this too.
ATGM's are more effective primarily because they're designed to take out tanks - and a helo doesn't have near that level of armor.
I have noticed that ATGM only seem to fire at helos that hover in one place for a turn or so unlike SAM's.
I figure if the pilot is dumb enough to stay in one place that long there's no reason some alert ATGM crew can't send him a little present.
I also seem to recall of hearing about helo's being taken down by ATGM's or for that matter RPG's in real life.
