    I wish utility helicopters could land a provide a rearming point for their allies. Would be pretty gimmicky and only useful on the largest maps, but at least it would represent the "utility" part.

    Just look at that landing. So smooth and artistic. The way you make this heap of metal literally waltz in the air, is stuff of legends.
    When I fly helis, it’s like a rattlesnake high on crack with a drunk pig for a copilot.

    I think some kind of long-form Ground Enduring Confrontation-ish mode should be added, there's a lot of untapped potential in making helicopters something more than just ground attackers. I can imagine the Mi-8 bringing supplies to front line players that are far from a supply point
    yeah not to mention a large scale battle with lots of AI enemies and objectives would just be sick in general.

    Having finished the video, but I'd just like to mention that Mi-8 has access to drag bombs. I think that could make the bombs actually viable, and since they hit so close to current position you dont need CCIP the same.
