Default Re: Helicopter Evasion

This way, I can decide (assuming the helo survived) - change altitude, withdraw or continue.
How much do you pay to your pilots so that you expect them to be stationary while being shot at?

IF the routine was to change, I would suggest a different one - that a helo, if it has enough experience and EW to notice missile being fired at, might take a "smaller" evasive move (say 3-4 hexes), if it breaks LOS to the missile unit it evades completely, if not, normal hit determination routine and "large" evasion ensues.
As for evasion patterns re. dropping from high alt to low (if being fired at by AAA/SAMs), I would guess the best would be a random approach - say based on experience and movement points remaining, the heli might go to low level.
