Helo Scouts-Recon by Suicide?

[Akmatov]

Thanks guys - good to know it is not just me, so I will not keep poking at it to try to figure out how to make them do what they actually can not do.

Wiyh an incoming missile you will often get a message saying evading so the helo or vehicle has seen it & is doing its best, reduces hit chance.
As Suhiir rightly says pairs so multi eyes they can be very effective at finding ATGMs HMGs back from the front line & AAguns. One probably wont see the AAgun as its suppressed or busy avoiding it. When scouting with like any unit the faster you go the less you spot so dont move flat out & expect to see much.
The other thing as said newish if think troops about flying high reduces the chance of a hit by them but of course makes you more of a target for AAA assets.

In Vietnam or before, I'd pop them up occasionally way behind in over watch and to spot flanking forces or atry smoke.

As imp has said they are pretty good for calling in atry or airstrikes.
