Keep shooting at them then. The M95 is pretty nice against choppers. So is a UAV with V Alt W.I do, have even nailed a couple with the main guns. The problem comes when the tanks are destroyed and the helicopters are still up(which happens far to often),
plus the small spawn area that every helicopter pilot bombs back to the stone age doesn't make it any easier.
I hate it when people stop what they're doing (defending a point, taking a point, keeping an eye out for enemies and killing them) and start firing whatever they have at the heli, since 40mms will probably miss, and most weapons have no effect.
Any gun will kill the pilot if you shoot through the cockpit windows. Nothing pisses off the chopper pilot more than standing in the middle of the road as he shoot missiles at you and then just headshotting him with a MP-443
If you can hit him enough to kill him, which you shouldn't be able to if he's any good (or can't fly, since he'll flip over and/or crash somehow within seconds of taking off).
I'm just a beast. I don't hide I run head long at the base and knife everyone while C4ing the whole base.
