I have been both on the receiving end and the giving end of these pretty exciting helicopters.But because I know that some people will start freaking out a bit before they do any research, I would like to teach you at least a couple of known ways to break the stealth mode of the enemy helis.Confirmed ways:1) Parts damage. If anything like TGMs, bullets, explosives etc do enough damage to cause the "parts damaged" message, that breaks the helicopter out of Stealth mode.2) Rao Hack. In a way this specialist might be an ever better counter than Liz is to the stealth helis. Just hack away and follow up with a stinger for a very sad and almost dead stealth heli (one stinger does like 80% damage).Speculated way:EMP: Since the EMP has the same effect as the hack, I assume that the EMP effects will also break the stealth. This is most likely to be the way that 2 stealth helicopters will fight each other since the gunner has that emp grenade launcher.

@UP_Hawxxeye thge stealth heli is making the game crap ive been on the end of a pilot that had 120 to 0 and no one could shoot it down .he ivere hads constant stealth or he was a fxxxxxxxxx cheater anyways the rockets in real live if it hits a black hawk or a hind with disable it and force it to land in this game it does nothing apart from get 20% damage and unless and one else in the game uses rockets its inpossible to shot the stealth down

@Trokey6620 damage or 20 points?I can absolutely confirm that it takes 2 stiglas for dead stealth bird. I just lost mine to 2 of them that hit near the same time.

@Trokey66 it sounds like a bug with the angle of the missiles

@Trokey66 That indicator is for XP not damage like old battlefield games.The damage done to a vehicle doesn't matter it just gives you 20xp for damage bonus.The heli probably used repairs between runs. Two fxaa missiles will kill the stealth heli if he doesn't use repair between them.

A Liz missile will take more than 50% of the health of a stealth heli.A stinger will do like 80-90% of the full health

@UP_Hawxxeye Good tips with one minor error.....

Used the Stigla extensively last night and managed 9 whole hits! All of which indicated only 20 damage. Granted, this may be a 'notification error' but.....

@UP_Hawxxeye Sure it says damage and tried again last night, hit a SOFLAM'd Stealth heli with 2 Stiglas and it didn't go down (should have videoed it but forgot!).

I may be being just unlucky but something isn't right, not sure what.

Liz's Rockets are always 20 DMG. Beat way to test it is to be in the heli.
Yes,.DMG and XP are not related, but in this case it is 20 XP, 20 DMG by design.

@A-RAF2019This is false, it's around 50~ damage. I know this because I was hit by them countless times the last time I flew a stealth heli. However, I believe if you hit the tail rotor, it can do ~30 damage.
