No it not. The main Air vs Air gun for the stealth helicopter is the other gun that one can select in place of the HE 30mm cannon. The dual HMGs that are basically a better version of the nightbird miniguns
Those overheat very fast, do less overall damage than the nightbirds miniguns, are accurate to much less distance, are much harder to hit targets while moving quickly, and even harder to hit targets that are moving quickly. Typically you're both moving quickly in encounters, making them only useful for close range.
And then since you've made the hele a triple HMG loadout, it's fairly useless at doing anything but being pesky to other aircraft - forget killing infantry unless you want to be m5'd. The current 30mm with its fast overheat is still a better pick than that option for air v air.
(TLDR: horrible loadout)
wonder what they broke with the load outs that they locked the ability to save them for now.
Who knows, I played a few rounds earlier and didn't notice anything?
