Also, a Pavelow has one set of flares, while the attack helicopter has none. So it takes two stinger missiles to take down a pavelow, while only one shot will rock the attack helicopter.
The following 3 users say thank you to roosterdude for this useful post:
attack helicopter is worse than it was in cod4. It barely shoots at anyone and can be shot down easy. Pave low has 2 powerful guns which means when it shoots, it WILL kill. It also pops flares when its being shot at which means it takes 2 stingers to kill it
Attack Helicopter is just like the COD4 helicopter, so its not very good. Pavelow is an armoured helicopter which is a lot better but it doesnt count towards your killstreak.
