Did you keep them hovering for at least a whole turn (ie not moving them) within range of those rpg's? That's what happened in Somalia and that's what needed for AT weapons to fire at them. I think the max you can move a chopper and still be a AT target is something like 2 hexes.

It would be very unrealistic if you could hit a fast moving chopper with rpgs. So if you want the Mogadishu feel of black hawk down, keep circling the chopper right over the enemy at low speeds.
