Littlebird / Nightbird is overpowered. Flares in 3-4 waves - flare reload very shot - agile as hell - minigun that shoots forever before heat-up. Stingers immune - fly fast - only way to kill is direct hit from tank / recoil or Lis missile.
All pilots gets massive k/d ratio flying this little "scout" chopper.
This little thing can be shot down with any lmg in real world - I know it is a game - but what we have here is crazy. So yes def. it should be possible to shoot pilots through the glass - still not easy.
Armor is heavy and the way this little thing can take of hits vs the way it can fly is not right.
At least if you manage to hit them with stingers its a one hit only - at least what I have seen.
So spare us with your complains - that chopper should be nerfed !
All vehicles in the game should have pros and * - something they fear - something that can kill them.
