A question about being shot down.

[Czechnology]

I've noticed the hind goes down most from two things. Number one is taking an autocannon to the cockpit and your pilot covering that pristine aquamarine cockpit with an ugly, chunky red. 

The second is uncertain? The only way I know it's happening is the helicopter wobbles TERRIBLY in what feels like a circular pattern, then the rotors rapidly lose speed to a near stop. I'm wondering if anyone knows what the actual cause of death is. My only guess is either

A) One of the rotors has been massively clipped, causing uneven lift, causing the wobble, causing strain, causing something to break.

B) The gear box (or option C the drive train as a whole) is under going rapid unscheduled disassembly, see this Chinook for details 

 

So my question is this. Is there ANYTHING to be done about this other than make a final prayer to your patron of choice?

I've tried auto rotation, doesn't work, the rotors simply come to a near complete stop and don't respond to collective changes. Usually happens so fast (longest I had between start of vibration and critical failure is a very, very generous guess of 10 seconds) that any landing one could perform becomes a crash. 

Maybe kill the engines? Could that prevent total destruction and allow auto rotation?

The only thing to do is not get fatally shot in the first place
