reported AH-1W damage model

[Raidhen]

Hi,

 

Is the damage model of the AH-1W (and other helicopters in general) correct ? It's a flying tank. Even with motors on fire for several minutes it can go home easily.

If you want to destroy helicopters you need to cut them in half.

Hi, I cannot reproduce this issue with latest open beta version.

Hi,

 

Thx for checking @Flappie

 

You can find a example in my tracks, right engine on fire after a SA-19 missile impact (even 2); it's burning forever but no impact on the power (RPM still the same as the undamaged motor).

Thank you. Your tracks show something is wrong with engines RPM, indeed. I'm pretty sure ED will wait until the new damage model is applied to helicopters before fixing this, but I'll ask anyway.
