Scout helos

[redcoat2]

This is probably a newbie question but how do I identify scout/light helos with good arty ratings when I'm picking units for a game? Moreover, have UAVs been given good forward observer abilities as well?

Buy the ones in the light helo or scout formations.
UAVs scout planes its pointless you cannot call arty from them they fly over the map & leave each turn. Any info is passed to controler on the ground

Doh! Thanks for your reply. Forgive my ignorance. I’ve never used UAVs in the game. I’d wrongly assumed that they moved on the map like helos rather than as obs aircraft.
