Why have Door gunner/guy with rifles in helicipter when they have autocannon in the front?
Field of fire. Not sure why I'm falling for bait.
>>64741688>BaitNo seriously, im legit retarded
>>64741684you have to be pointing your heli at something to shoot at it from the front. Side canons have this whole 180 degrees on the side of the heli to take aim at. A heli can just hover and park while the gunner lays down death and destruction.I hope more comes out from the Caracas raid, since these were actually used. I want to watch this huge documentary with 3D reconstructions.
>>64741684Because they don't have autocannon in the sides. Now go back to plebbit and be stupid there where you belong.
>>64741684>Why do they have more guns firing from more angles instead of just one gun
>>64741684Why have faggots on /k/ when they have faggots on /lgbt/?
>>64741684Most helicopters with passenger compartments don't have autocannons on slewing mounts or turrets like the Apache or Cobra/Viper have. Door gunners let them have a greater field of fire to cover the troops they are dropping off or picking up.
>>64741826True. Faggots like you keep coming when you should be going.
>>64742069Of course faggots keep coming, we keep beating them off.
>>64741684>YOU'VE BEEN HIT BY
Ignoring OP for a bit: What small arms are available for door gunning? If you were a door gunner, what would be the one you'd want to use the most?
>>64742275m240b is probably the only thing i can think of if it isn't already used for that
>>64741684Cuz it's fucking /k/ino and we rock on the rule of cool>>64742275M60 and a bunch of CCR and Rolling Stones albums, how is this even a question
>>64742573kino picrip to the support gunner
>>64742522It is indeed already used for that. In fact I think it's the most common one
>>64741684Because the Bell UH1 is not an attack helicopter, it's a utility helicopter, and they do not have frontal cannons, you dumb faggot.
