    They won't shoot it down.

    Why? Not because this is an air combat beast. It's because there's usually Cobra and Viper fighters nearby. Those ARE air combat beasts that can down dozens of fighters at the push of a button. @Himynameiswalrus

    They wouldn't see it. We pop up from behind a mountain, launch a missile, and presto! A platoon is dead. And then we pop down. @MemeKingIndustriesAndMegaCorporation

    I think next time I try to build a VTOL helicopter I will adjust it so it doesn't lean back so far...@Pilotmario
