@9mgebypzbiszNo, this invalidates the stealth mode. It's usefulness is severely limited in stealth mode. A pilot flying around only in stealth isn't doing much to change the match.
Yes. It becomes less effective while in stealth. But it's not completely ineffective and the bombs can still do massive damage to ground. However it becomes basically impossible for ground to counter it, while it's stealth. That is the definition of imbalanced. It's simply too strong. Stealth, insane speed, flares to avoid damage. All while still being able to dish out damage to ground forces while they can only watch and hope air can catch it.
Rao's hacking forces the stealth chopper out of stealth mode. One M5 takes the stealth chopper out.
Stealth choppers have enough time to pop flares before Rao's hack goes off, giving the stealth chopper enough time to fly away to cover/out of range while they're hacked. I was just playing with an annoying pilot who would decimate all our air and armor and even with a squad of three of us going after them with Rao and AA, we couldnt manage to kill him. Honestly I think the chopper would be better if the bombs were on the gunner seat instead of the EMP bomb (because why does it need that too on top of everything else) and if it was more sluggish to control in attack mode. its a straight upgrade to the attack chopper and scout choppers both right now.
