Re: HEAT vs Helicopters
Try this scenario. it is M1A1 against Mi-24, HEAT is not fired! It looks that it is not possible to fire HEAT round against armored helos. Fire is possible only at those without armor stat!
p.s: Don, blast away?

Re: HEAT vs Helicopters
Loaded scenario into patched version of game, tanks happily fire HEAT ammo at the hinds, until they evade - when only the AAMG can engage. Repeated test in the issued CD exe, with same results.
No problem with firing tank main gun at helos - armoured or vanilla.
Cheers

Re: HEAT vs Helicopters
They can in the patch version. I'm not sure when that changed but they can fire at Helos with HEAT now

Re: HEAT vs Helicopters
Yes - I had not got the 1.0DL version loaded in my scratchpad test folder, looks like something that changed between 1.0 and the CD version though I have no recollection of doing it  !
So - fixed when the patch arives.

Re: HEAT vs Helicopters
JaM,
It can be done. You just have to be sitting still and have a helo that is not moving to fast.
Here is a pic from the Global Security web site of a 120mm M830A1 HEAT round (fielded 1994 and still in use) explodind near a target helo.
