@@JustinPlaysTV on 4:40 about moving your reticle while missile is in the air, just turn off the laser and then move your reticle.. this will not influence the missile's flight path.
@@aslatabistaalphonso4250 as a EC 665 UHT user: In that situation it could have needed 2 PARS probably because the first one just exploded in the air LOL. But PARS are INCREDIBLE UNRELIABLE, since they are IR missiles, imagine there are 3 tanks, one destroyed and the others in a range of 20 meters, the lock sight will ALWAYS lock on the destroyed one because it is emitting more heat (it is burning) than the non-destroyed ones. Imagine trying to lock an aircraft with the sun closer to it. Other times, it will lock on the ground, or the tank's cannon, sometimes because it is unguided it can land on the most armored part of the tank, or on the back and it only destroys the engine. The PARS are quite slow, so most of the time, you launch a missile but the enemy gets killed or behind cover. And you only have 8 of them. :D Now, heli vs. heli battles: most of the time top tier is Germany facing Russia, or Russia and USA. PARS are WAY SLOWER than the Vihkrs. So in a desert map, you will lose because there is no cover. The ATAS AAM are definitely not worth to use against aircraft or heli, they are slow and doesn't pull enough Gs. You better use the PARS, so trying to get aircraft or helis before tanks will consume all your only 8 PARS. Bottom line is: EC 665 UHT is good, but definitely not the best nor top 3.
I got this thing the moment the update dropped using the promo code, the only reason I got it is cuz I’m from South Africa and love the representation in the game
The Mokopas are basically what the Hellfires should be. I think they're just behind Vikhrs in terms of speed. The helo itself could use some fixes as it's flight performance is apparently incorrectly modelled. Heard from people that the engine is underpowered.
From the improvements I saw of this over the Apache’s ordnance I went ahead and picked it up 2 days ago! And I went ahead and used your discount link Justin, I’m always happy to support your content!
Don’t forget the missiles also have IOG so if the target is stationary and pops smoke or you have to evade something, just turn off your laser and it will continue to target without input 🤙🏼
Great video, but I have a question. Is the AH Mk.1 from the brits still worth it, if you already have the rooivalk? Right now? Because I‘m grinding for the Apache with the rooivalk and want to know, if I waste my time?
South African enginiers: -We have a new attack helicopter, how we should name it? -What we had previously? -Eeeehhhh let's see, we had Olifant, G6 Rhino...uhmm...Rooikat... -What did we named Rooikat? -An 8 wheeled tank destroyer/light tank. -And what scope of duties our helicopter has? -Basically the same as the Rooikat. -No more question it will be Rooivalk! -Why? -Because we can't name it Rooikat as well. Seriously what does it mean Rooikat and Rooivalk? The video was great and interesting and at some point it was hilarious as well. Thanks for the video!
(I don't know why the Otomatic is mentioned here, as that's Italian.) Anyways, the reason why it is called Rooivalk and Rooikat, (and Olifant). They are the Afrikaans names for South African animals. Afrikaans being a language exclusively spoken in South Africa. (Afrikaans is a language, derived PRIMARILY from Dutch). The word 'Rooi' alone, means 'Red'. It is similar to how the Germany has the 'Tiger' Helicopters, Panther, Leopard, Tanks, etc. Olifant, Rooikat, Rooivalk, are the names of Animals.
@@armablign the Otomatic was a mistake to be honest. The autocorrector just rember to it, I don't know what I wanted to write. 😅😅 It is so emberassing😅😅 I apologise

Unfortunately you can't. Creator codes only work on Xbox and PC, us PS4 players get screwed because of Sonys purchasing process. That's also why we can't link our accounts to PC and have vehicles move over.
@@waffles4322 yeah when the PS5 came out they should have included that. PS5 doesn't seem to have to have changed much. I wish we could use the Gaijin store too
As a South African, it's always funny watching non afrikaans people trying to pronounce the names, atleast they made it pretty accurate compared to real life. Only weapon it's missing is the FZ275 LGR.
1:20 so 30f26 can overpressure the front of my challenger 2, but 2 missiles can't overpressure an aluminium can that's only protected from rifle calibre bullets.
I personally tried getting this to work, spent nearly over 20 games trying to get a kill (missile spaa are very common right now) and personally, me and hell fires do not get along in the slightest. If there is even 1 missile Spaa up you will never do a thing since hell fires are so incredible slow they will never arrive on target before you have to dive away. Thankfully the GLinx at 10.0 normally only has 2 missile Spaa at its br making it much more effective for grinding unless you just want to bring this into Heli PVE thanks to it large loadout
The thing with the g lynx is that you can kind of fly above the enemy and sometimes at 10.0 you don’t really get missile AA if you get a good match, but pray that you don’t get railed by a flarakpz or xm975 As far as I remember the g lynx has flares but no MAW If you get Russia on your team you can do a funny little trick and wait for the su25s to spawn and find out where the as is coming from Personally if you’re gonna spend 50 usd then get either the ka50 or the mi28a The mi28a is incredible at 10.0, I fully recommend it because last I remember you started grinding USA over Russia
Yo man, bought this hellli yesterday. I have a great expirience with preious Brit premium helli (G-LYNX). Im top tier player from years, and I havent any problem to hit tagets with G-LYNX. But with Rooivalk i cant hit nothing, WTF??? The Mokopa missiles always miss, or just makes only "hit", so what the problem with this missiles? Thanks!
There is a huge problem among many other with these top down missiles. They don't actually top down. Watch your replays, go into test drive. Watch the kill feed when your hellfire slams into the top of a tank at a 75 degree angle. Notice how it shows an almost straight on hit? The hit registers from the helo's line of sight for whatever reason, meaning that sometimes you catch a bit of structure that you shouldn't, leading to non-pens and no kills. Since they are "top attack" you can't even guide then in to avoid strong parts, or barrels.
A simple TOW is more reliable killer than Hellfire which you launch at someone 1km away and it shoots up into the sky and two days later it slams down and scratches the target even if it's just a light tank. Realism = can switch modes before launch, send Hellfire directly at the target instead. We'll see F&F soviet helis and probably in a premium/market purchasable state before we see F&F Hellfire, but we know how badly PARS3 works. We know how bad Stinger Mistral etc work because they nerfed all the other countries because Igla was bad IRL. And then there's heli-Stinger being dysfunctional based on graphics settings................
You are not using the LOAL method of firing. LOBL is inferior to LOAL, turn of your laser before firing and you can wait for the missile to get to the position then you turn on the laser in the last 10ish seconds. This way you can hide while the missile flys, it doesnt get efffected by loosing lock or laseing smoke/trees. This is a helicopter which is better at longer range like 6+km. You can use this method on all hellfire types. It really makes the hellfire much more potent since you can lock a position, hide behind a hill or other obstacle then fire the hellfire type from 3th person view and it will fly over the hill to the tank map while you are in cover. Then you can track the missiles flight by weapon cammera when it turns to face the ground you exit out of cover and lase your target giving SPAA little to no time to fire at you.
One thing you did not mention is that because Rolands in Heli ec got 8km range missiles it has made any platform without missiles that go beyond 8km useless. However the range of an agm114k hellfire should be 11km
But also the Roland’s in helicopter battles only have Roland 1’s as of right now, giving them range of 6.5km I believe, they used to have Roland 2 missiles which do have 8km range
I think Gaijin should buff the Stinger, Mistral and perhaps Igla to around TY-90 level and either put proxy fuses out of the game or make a Vikhr pod pre spawn selectable between proxies or non proxies. Then you would have to decide if you wanna play as a airborne SPAA like the Z-19 or be tank busting. Or make both with half the prior missile amount for each targets. Then move SP for all helis up to around 700 SP with ATGMs. It is insane that I need just 1 full cap in my BVM to get my Ka-52 with 12 Vikhr, 10 S-13OF and 8 Iglas. This comment is from a guy with 700 kills on my Ka-52.
Lucky you that you are on the Russian side. (Putting my tin foil hat on) I think all of this situation is Gaijin getting more profit whilst making Russia digitally better than every other nation.
@@johanapolinarioveliz6754 Well I have full lineups for US and GER to - with heli, jet, MBT, lights and SPAA.

Hi Justin I love the rooivalk but have absolutely nothing in the British tree. Do you think if I buy the rooivslk I could get the rooikat and rush to cap points and scout vehicles then spawn? Or is that a bad way of getting it. If that’s a bad way do you think Britain will get a event or squad rank 7 tank next patch?
You're going to need a usable ground vehicle to best use the Rooivalk in matches anyway so if you really want to play with it, your best bet is to just buy the Chally 1 DS and/or the Rooikat 105 and pair them up with the Rooivalk at top tier. Not saying you should do so however as you're going to be taking premiums from 8.7 and/or 9.7 and fighting top tier MBTs. If you're playing Ground RB just to play a premium helicopter, you might as well just have bought the Ka-50 instead
@@Alex-fn5nu There's no point in rushing the enemy spawn unless you have a death wish. You can just cap a point with a really fast vehicle and check if you have enough SP to spawn the Rooivalk with Mokopas. If you need more points, you can try to get kill or scouting assists. Simply scouting targets doesn't give a lot of SP. Besides, scouting assists using light tanks that have the Airstrike modification on them will be particularly useful
Even with my prem Mi-24 the grind is miserable as fuck, both Bo 105's are 370k-380k while being literally the same and not worth the price That and the rp gain is so fucking less
The hell fire and Mokopas are just programmed to be inaccurate on some helicopter models IE i get better and more accurate hits with Hellfires on my G lynx compared to me Ah 64 E, While IRL a hellfire K is nerfed in Range IRL range is 11KM and is more accurate only having a 30cm or 1ft wide dispersion radius where the missile will hit the target, and they should give it its fire and forget Hellfire too but ehh its gaijin the power creep and overstated capabilities of vehicles will always be what they say
South africa needs its own tech tree and all those south african vehicles in the British tech tree should be moved over to the south african one.people who play Britain don't appreciate our vehicles that much....
Helicopters do not belong in clusterfucks like WT maps. Worse still, contending with 2S6 Tunguska that sees and shoots through trees. There is nothing more enraging than thinking the 8,000 meters of trees between you and the 2S6 will cover you as it does IRL only to have a missile come out of the trees and right into your face. Alternatively it is annoying to hover behind a thick stand of trees you can't see through and have a Vikhr from a Ka-50 come through them and hit you. And the T-80BVM....if you can't make 5 kills per match in this thing you clearly ate the paint chips off grandma's walls as a kid. Either play Russia if you want to actually enjoy the game or don't play this game.
How can rooivalk compete with British ah-64D, while having such a terrible atgm, wich cant even hit stationary tagets or literally blow up bmd-4? Hellfires with its 9 kilos of tnt blowing up any tank with 95% chanse. Also British Apache has its amazing starstreaks, allowing it to spawn with light tank/spaa destroyer missile at the beginning of a match.
This helicopter is garbage and don''t buy it. Underpowered engine makes it too unreliable while doing evasive maneuvers from missile. Makopas suck more than the hellfire in terms of tracking, like big time. This thing can't hit anything reliably even stationary ones below 3 km because the missile climbs to space for some reason then unable to point back down in time. The moment your reticle touches a tree or bush, your missile is lost. Mistrals suck ass compared to ty-90, always goes for flares when used correctly and seems to turn only twice until giving up on tracking. Rooivalk not worth until: 1. fix flight model/give more engine power 2. fix the damn makopa trajectory and tracking 3. fix the god damn mistrals to be on par with ty-90
The start of the video against the BMD 4 was really painful to watch

Surely this game can't last if everyone just goes for russia lol, it'd become the same shitfest as toptier air with f-14s on both teams
It's good, but trust me those starstreaks are better cuz mistrals cant do shit against 2S6
when the fuck did this get added
Worth it
Better than the g lynx?
How can rooivalk compete with British ah-64D, while having such a terrible atgm, wich cant even hit stationary tagets or literally blow up bmd-4? Hellfires with its 9 kilos of tnt blowing up any tank with 95% chanse. Also British Apache has its amazing starstreaks, allowing it to spawn with light tank/spaa destroyer missile at the beginning of a match.
hellfires with 9kg of tnt in 99,99% of situations can kill only 1 crew member. Where did you get this 95% chance ?
@@Robert-jb3hg from my recent experience. Literally yesterday.
@@Robert-jb3hg Not sure where you have been over the last few months but hellfires one shot everything these days
AND a fuking joking thing is that,even the China Z-10 s thumbanail is this english helis
A helicopter of once a great army in SA which is now a bunch of rubbish.
Nerd
first comment lets goooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
This helicopter is garbage and don''t buy it. Underpowered engine makes it too unreliable while doing evasive maneuvers from missile. Makopas suck more than the hellfire in terms of tracking, like big time. This thing can't hit anything reliably even stationary ones below 3 km because the missile climbs to space for some reason then unable to point back down in time. The moment your reticle touches a tree or bush, your missile is lost. Mistrals suck ass compared to ty-90, always goes for flares when used correctly and seems to turn only twice until giving up on tracking.
Rooivalk not worth until: 1. fix flight model/give more engine power 2. fix the damn makopa trajectory and tracking 3. fix the god damn mistrals to be on par with ty-90
