Hellos speed

Post by Panta_slith »

Another thing I would like to comment --and I will shut up for a while, short of becoming an annoyance! [:'(]-- is the slow speed at which helos cross the battlefield.
Cobras, for instance, have a combat speed of some 145 knots (around 270 km/h). We can consider that flying NOE they reduce their speed a lot, let's say, 35 knots, which is around 60 km/h.
In turns of 10' increments, they would make 10 klicks in a single turn.
That isn't depicted in the game, where they are slow movers instead. Too slow.
Perhaps the helos' modelling would need a second thought for the upcoming version of the game...[;)]
Cheers,
