Questions about modern campaigns game

[Volcano Man]

My comment is why oh why does this game engine NOT allow targeting of Hind helicopters by tanks and their main gun! I'm a ex-M1A1 tanker and we trained to use Sabot rounds against Hinds whenever we ran across them. To have Hinds stand off 2 hexes and plink away at your tanks is frustrating! I mean come on....their right their....BOOM!....but nooo...gotta tink tink tink with the 50 Cal. I guess....

It does use the maingun. IIRC, (someone correct me if I am wrong) the AA rating is not used when firing at helicopters, instead I think it uses the soft attack value. I am almost sure of this unless it was changed in an update, and if so then AA is only used against airstrikes.
