It's hard enough to take them out with AA and they are too powerful. To balance the odds, one hit should knock them out.

I've had a few kills against attack choppers from a tank when its been coming straight towards me.
A nice shell into the cockpit and the pilot and gunner are dead and there is a nice little chopper spiraling out of control over the map for a few minutes.

ive done both a few times, killing choppers many more times than jets. the jet kill was in wake and the pilot flew right at me, i shot the shell killed him and the flaming jet then hit me.  with helos you just gotta lead em right.  usually takes 2 shots but ive hit em with 1 before and boom so eh.  this is one of my personal favorite things to do against blackhawks cuz i get  4 or 5 kills every time ^_^.

if you hit a chopper with a tank shell hit f2 and finish im off with the machine gun .. ive hit the cockpit with a shell and noone died. if you see a helo diving at you pop a shot at him if you miss hit a smoke and nail the gas forward so he passes over you, sometimes if you see the chopper smoking youre better off not even trying to hit him with a shell just hop on the machine gun it chews choppers up

if you hit a plane with a tank shell he would have be moving low and either slowed to slmost stall or hovering... or just really lucky

oh and evenm hitting right below the rotors doesnt kill in one shot .. if you ever kill the chopper with onetank shell it was allready damaged

It depends from chopper to chopper and where you hit them. They usually are the strongest on there belly. And very weak at the top of the cockpit and rotor blades.
I've taken down US fighter helis with one ERYX shot when  I shot them right under there rotor blades.
US Cobra's have the best agility but also the weakest armor of the choppers.

the higher you hit  any chopper the more damage you do, keep that in mind.

I've been nailed by guys in hummers when I piloted with my mouse... hard times that mouse gave me... but it is very easily possible to get nailed from several ground vehicles... depending on the pilot.

I nailed this heli once and I saw 4 others jump out but the pilot stayed in the heli

i like being in the tank on wake in certain areas because the jets have to come in at certain angles to get a good strafe/bombing run, i'll just line it up and wait for them to nose dive at me.  Takin a few out, but i lost a lot more of those fights then i won.
