Title: ME-110 Tips?
Post by: Seagoon on May 03, 2002, 09:13:14 PM

Hi Guys,

Wondering if anyone has any tips on ACM with the 110. I loved the old AW 110 and used to simply treat that like a slow turnfighter, but I find the 110 in AH to be a mystery to me. I've even managed to get it into a terminal flat spin, which is something I've never done with another AH plane. I love the guns on the G2 and don't have any problems going up against bombers, but with almost any fighter - I'm toast. In particular, if they have alt on me, I might as well just auger.

How do I take on fighters with this beast, is it possible?

I fly the 110g2 A LOT, it's my favorite plane in the game.

Stay fast

Stay away from vertical manuevers (except a displacement roll, You can can squirt a baddie on your six pretty easily with that as youll burn e very quick)

Look for the advantage at all times, I like to tag along in groups, it keeps the nme from focusing on me.  If youre alone you will have your hands full.  At least fly with a wingman.

Shoot people in the face.  No one wins a head on against a 110g2, tho I have had a few "draws"  

That's the basics, 1v1 you'll die unless you sneak a ho.  Work the fringes, get a wingman, or just tag along with some other fighter pukes and you will have an excellent opportunity to really tear it up.

LOL

But seriously, listen to Fester.  (And don't even bother with the rear gun.)

Is that a rear gun ???  I thought it was a PEZ dispenser !!!

Seagoon,  since you are coming from AW... You will have to get used to the idea that a Head On is a viable tactic in AH... :confused:    Just as sure as the world is round... If you don't take a shot at the HO merge the other guy will...

I always find it amazing that pile-its willingly fly into the 110g's ONLY strength.

I killed 3 in quick succession while fully loaded with 2 500kg bombs.  I barely had to deviate from my course to kill them.
