Generally speaking sticking behind mountains or tree lines will suffice. You'll need to do that as the AB 205 A-1 helicopter is not very armoured, so most if not all ground targets will easily make short work of you if you are not careful. When fighting on the Ground RB battlefield, you'll need to stay low to avoid any incoming SPAA. In that case you'll get overwhelmed with everything you need to watch out for, which will lead you to be less effective in the CAS role for your team, and usually will end up in you being shot down. Do keep in mind who exactly you are choosing to engage, as you'll realise soon enough that destroying a player with spawn points backed up will usually lead them to spawn in either an anti-air ground vehicle or an aircraft to counter the AB 205 A-1. You'll easily be able to pick off enemy air from a distance due to the range on your machine guns. With the AB 205 A-1, unlike other helicopters, you won't need to worry about spawn points as the only load-out on the AB 205 includes two 7.62 mm M134 minigun machine guns and fourteen FFAR Mighty Mouse rockets. At the same battle rating, you have access to the M113A1 (TOW), so this vehicle should be the one in which you should use to quickly get inside a helicopter. This is one of the most common strategies as if you manage to pull it off in a match that has only just started, you will likely surprise unsuspecting enemies who might think it's still to early to worry about enemy aircraft. This will mean that once you have captured a point and scouted a vehicle, you'll be able to get into the helicopter with armed with your mighty mouse rockets and machines guns straight away if you happen to get knocked out early. If not spawning with the AB 205 A-1 first, it is recommended you bring in a light vehicle able to scout, with access to the "Air strike" modification. By doing this, you have the chance of racking up some easy assists at the early moments of the match.
Your miniguns sadly are not very useful against ground targets, so the best way to use them is either as anti-air, or to help teammates know where enemies are by using your miniguns as a sort of scout tactic. Your rockets can be effective at destroying light tanks, and MBTs if hit at the right spot.
Depending on what your targets are, you have a chance to easily destroy one or two ground targets at the start of the match with ease. As a first spawn, you should stick low to the ground, and make the most out of your speed to surprise enemies at the start of the match. Even then, there are only 14 rockets available for the AB 205 A-1, so every rocket salvo needs to count! If you run out of rockets during your match (which is pretty common considering you don't have many), it is advised you return to base to get rearmed.įor Ground RB, you can actually choose to spawn first with this helicopter. The armament options for the AB 205 A-1 are quite light, only being able to use rockets and two miniguns at most. The AB 205 A-1 can be a decent helicopter for its battle rating, there are line-up options available to the player, which can be used to pair the helicopter up with. Effective use of the helicopter will require reasonable accurate with the rockets, while the 7.62 mm can be used to shoot down enemy air targets.ħ.62 mm M134 Minigun machine guns (3,000 rpg) A UH-1 with a more powerful engine that can manoeuvre faster, the armament is quite poor, composed only of 14 FFAR Mighty Mouse and two 7.62 mm M134 Miniguns.

Introduced in Update "Hot Tracks", the AB 205 A-1 is the first helicopter you will use in the Italian helicopter tree. With new metal support capabilities for armament and utility, and also upgrades to the engine, the AB-205A-1 was born, this helicopter would be used by the Aviazione Leggera dell'Esercito Italiano Corpo Carabinieri. The AB-204 was later modified and upgraded, and redesignated AB-205, whose fuselage was lengthened allowing the cabin to accommodate up to 14 people, including pilots. The first to be built was named AB-204 which would eventually be used by the army to help with the role of transporting personnel, food and armament. In 1966, the company Costruzioni Aeronautiche Giovanni Agusta SpA managed to obtain permission to produce the UH-1 Huey under license, which not only allowed them to be built but also sold abroad.
