The transport helicopters of Battlefield 4, where do we begin? They can easily handle fights against attack choppers because if the attack chopper doesn't land every shot from both the pilot and gunner the transport chopper won't be destroyed and it will auto-regen and get repaired while the attack chopper has to wait to regenerate ammo...If you are in an attack chopper and a transport chopper is coming towards you assume he is trying to literally knock you out of the sky as it will most likely win the fight if comes down to one chopper colliding with another.

The transport choppers also seem to catch fire quite easily. If the health drops to ~80-86 it will catch fire and lose stability and some lift acceleration which is silly as so many things in this game can damage it. I still haven't figured out the flight model, it's weird in this version of Battlefield and it's probably based on the RU transport chopper flight model in BF3 which was terrible compared to the US counterpart.

There is also a glitch with choppers and lock on weapons that allow them to break the locks of anything incoming. Can be done by quickly exiting and entering the vehicle midair which means the attack chopper can do this too. Hopefully it gets fixed as that glitch just makes several weapons/gadgets pointless.

One good thing, well sort of is that the guns on the transport chopper don't do that much damage to infantry but seem to do okay against other choppers. At the moment I'm fine with that as they are more lethal than the other choppers as the transport chopper also acts as a mobile spawn for the team. Also players in the fourth and fifth seat if engineers can fire rockets through any part of the cockpit, so they can lock on to designated targets like you see in this video and shoot straight through the chopper. I'm not sure if that's a bug or just the effects of lag as sometimes I've seen rockets fired far behind the chopper when it's in motion. Either way I like it as it means less accidental suicides and more fun for the passengers.

You can stand on them again along with other vehicles as infantry. That should be fun later :)
