The 65mph limit could refer to the max speed, where you can track(and therefor lead) the target. Remeber, this would be RELATIVE speed at a 90° angle towards the aim line. I don't think flying 90°s to your target is a good option. (don't know realy...but I guess you would make a great target to any AD asset then?) There some good ways allready listed of making the choppers quiete anoying in any scenario, esp. if they pop up in you flank or from higher angles where you'd never look to :-P With the route setting mentioned by Eisen and Volcano you can simulate at least a kind of evasive behaviour. As for flares: no weaponsystem modeled in SB so far would be impressed by them. All the SAM are SACLOS types 8-) But I shall not bubble about that to much...as I know this much about correct AH deployment ;-) . So an actual "rotor-heads" insights are allways wellcome!!
