Re: ATGM vs Helo
In the US Army at least, ATGM gunners are trainined to engage slow moving/hovering helos. During a JRTC training rotation, our battalion's Delta Company (AT/Heavy Weapons) "Killed" (using MILES gear) a couple of helos, inluding JRTC's famous Mi-24 Hind (an former East German bird I believe) with their TOW-2 ATGMs. The US Army's Javelin ATGM actually has a direct attack mode specifically for use against helo's and bunker/buildings.
