DoneDirtCheap 370 Report post Posted September 19, 2022 (edited) Can someone explain to me why this is 8.7 and on a separate branch form the other helis? Wasn't it 8.3 in dev server, and the Z-11WA followed it at 8.7? Why would I ever choose Gazelle before Z-11WA when the armament is basically the same but the latter have thermals? Seems completely pointless...how about move it to 8.3? Alouette II seems much more capable and is at 8.3... @Smin1080pAny explanation for this, please? :-) Edited September 19, 2022 by DoneDirtCheap Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smin1080p_WT 60,444 Report post Posted September 19, 2022 The Gazelle has the same weaponry, but better flight performance. Its a side grade for that particular reason. So that those that want to use it can, those that want to carry right on with the rest of the tree also can. As with all BRs, there BR is potentially subject to change based on how the vehicle does. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for clarifying! hope it will be reconsidered to 8.3 eventually, I'd rather have thermals than a bit better flight performance since you have to be so close to sling missiles anyways.

But his France brother is 8.3 with similar flight performance and ATGM, pls make it 8.3 again 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you let the developer check the mount data of Chinese helicopter weapons? Their drag value is dozens or even hundreds of times that of all other helicopters. This is more like a bug. It is so unique Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The improved flight performance probably won't save you many times anyway! I can't even imagine anyone bothering to research and crew this heli, so how will Gajin collect data on its performance? I've yet to see a Chinese Gazelle in a battle... Seems like a waste of resources spent developing it tbh. Does any of you use it?

ITouchedTed 62 Report post Posted September 27, 2022 I spaded it, but it was a pita to complete. It's 8.7 but doesn't even get stock atgms, you only have rocket loadout stock and the missiles are Rank 4. imo it should be moved to before the Z-11WA as the starter heli. If they want to do a branch off it should be a Huey or AH-1 for the ROCA heli branch 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NAYEONnaise 1,936 Report post Posted September 27, 2022 since it's a chinese helicopter, it's given the over-tiering treatment just like france in many situations... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe both should be lowered? For French players as well, why would you use Gazelle over Alouette II....heli BRs seems a bit messy when comparing the different tech trees!
