SPMBT - area SAM - bug ?

[klanx171]

I have had Helos taken out with both kinds of SAM (SP and area). I could be wrong but there seems to be something to do with how much a chopper moves before its fired on by SP SAMs but not area SAMs.

I prefer SAMs with radar as non radar SAMs only work better at closer range (sometimes very short range) while radar SAMs can see out to the limit of their radar range no matter what visibility is and against choppers thats important as if they get to close they are trouble.

That said I tend to mix AA and SAMs so not to have a clever Opp draw of my SAM supply before his planes come in.
