Hasha 2 Posted January 19, 2002 This is nuts, i think the Hind cockpit glass is made of some sort of 22nd century diamond crap. I fired an entire 500 round of M2MG bullet at the cockpit but the pilot inside is still smiling at me. This is JUST GAY IMPOSSIBLE. I think even Bush's limo cannot stand that much bullets? What the hell is happening here?? Is the Hind REALLY THAT GREAT? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If possible, you should first deprive the tank/APC of the commander, and then the gunner. It is quite do-able with a good rifle (the G36 comes to mind), and will drastically reduce the combat effectiveness of the vehicle. Of course, if you miss making the required headshot, you now have one ticked-off tank or APC on your hands, and they will have a pretty good idea of where you are. And even if you don't get killed right away, the crew will stay buttoned up for a long time before you get another chance to take them out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can shoot ppl in choppers, just not east choppers. (Funny. I thought that russia was part of europe, and therefore part of the western world. Even if you were talking about their position relative to america, I'd say you'd still have to call them west). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wobble 1 Posted January 20, 2002 the glass in the hind is RETARDED.. no glass can stop more tha a few rounds, much less 50 cal.. the glass will shatter with the first or second shot.. but the bullets wont come through.. then after that the rest of the rounds would probably get in..

Sith 0 Posted January 20, 2002 Well...the Hind's cockpit glass was designed to withstand small-arms fire. Not just the thickness, but most of all the round shape of the glass will make most bullets just bounce off. I dont know to what caliber this glass will be able to do this...but I agree that maybe the M2 should be able to pierce it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

christophercles 0 Posted January 20, 2002 Ive fired a full m2 at a hind cockpit before (an empty one) and it did get destroyed, and it would have killed the occupants, but it wouldnt have taken them down by killing them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kasatka 0 Posted January 20, 2002 ... the Mi-24 Hind is the second fastest combat helicopter in the world (the first is the Lynx) ... one of then shoot down a F-4 Phanton in the Iraq vs Irăn war.. ...and he is knowed as "Flying Tank" because his strong armor... BTW in the Gulf War a Iraq Mig-25 Foxbat shoot down a F-18 Hornet, and a Indian Mig-23 Flogger shoot down a Pakistaniese F-16.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
varjo 0 Posted January 20, 2002 "... the Mi-24 Hind is the second fastest combat helicopter in the world (the first is the Lynx" Bullshit...Don't know much about choppers but if we speak only about russian choppers KA-50/52 are both faster. Don't know about mi-28 but it is newer and smaller/lighter so it would be very odd if it wouldn't be faster than the mi-24. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Antichrist 0 Posted January 20, 2002 If it's newer and lighter it doesn't necessary means that it is faster And Ka-50 is slower cause at the speeds of more than 300 Kph its two propellers can destroy each other (amplitude too big) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WKK Gimbal 0 Posted January 20, 2002 The Cobra has sugar-glass on the cockpit. I once shot down a Cobra with a single M16 bullet. No need to say I hit the pilot right in the forehead. The gunner was so surprised he forgot to bail out, lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dangus 0 Posted January 20, 2002 The Hind cockpit in real life will not reliably stop .308, or 7.62x54R. It will definitely stop 5.56x45 and 5.45x39, as well as 7.62x39. To suggest it has any chance of stopping .50 BMG is absurd. Even a manhole cover won't stop that stuff. The M2 is way underpowered in the game. Most people don't realize that a full .50 BMG round is over 5 inches long with a base that is about an inch in diameter. It's as big as a dinner candlestick, whereas the 5.56x45 is about as big as one of those birthday candles you stick on a cupcake. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Antichrist 0 Posted January 20, 2002 In real life Hind cockpit glass can stop couple of 22 mm rounds easily not talking about .5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dangus 0 Posted January 20, 2002 Can DEFLECT 22mm rounds maybe, stop them? Not a chance. It would have to be made of 1 foot thick Lexan to even have a chance of doing that. I think you fail to appreciate how powerful a 22mm round is. .50 BMG SLAP rounds can penetrate over 10 inches of solid mild steel, and around 4-5 inches of armor grade steel. 22MM is a LOT bigger than .50 BMG (12.7mm) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

madmike 0 Posted January 20, 2002 If you lined loads of people up and fired one 7.62 bullet at the person in the front, the bullet would go through over 12 people before stopping. I hope that might make it a bit clearer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dangus 0 Posted January 20, 2002 A cockpit that can take that large a round is not the same as a window that can.... The cockpit of the A-10 can take incredible hits but the canopy cannot. As for 7.62x51... yeah, it could do that, but it depends on how many bones it hits probably. Most people don't appreciate how much penetration these rounds are capable of.

charles 0 Posted January 20, 2002 from what i heard of, the glass can stand up to 23mm rounds, but i think you shoot a couple of rounds to the same area, the glass's gonna give way Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
