The yah 64 is absolutely garbage, it’s better to play it without hellfires
No countermeasures means you are automatically dead if anything AA or CAS looks at you unless the enemy wants to spare you for some reason

I spawn on the remotest helipad, carefully fly low until I reach a mountain ridge and I start hovering there. I barely show myself for a second over there at 8km far from the battlefield and I already get a laser warning. I dare to fly 10m higher I’m dead. I dare to remain there - I’m dead because a jet will launch its missile from 10Km away.

Flares don't mean anything for helis. Most SAM systems are manually guided so they straight up ignore flares and even for the rare case of an aircraft somehow getting over to you, you are too low for radar missiles and have a heat signature so weak that if one gets an IR lock on you, they are already at gun range.
The only thing that matters in ground rb for helis is their armamant and with 16 8km hellfires at 10.3 no other heli at that br can hold up with you in terms of CAS capabilities

Bruh you have thermals and a camera that has an 81x zoom. You never need to be in range of most SPAA/SAM.

As the others mentioned flares are nothing for the SPAA's.Don't directly fly to them,fly into the flank position and engage them from there.

Do I? I don’t have thermals researched and thought it doesn’t get them. The zoom is nice but like I said I can get obliterated from the spawn, Tunguska, Rolands, ADATAs, the Tor have enough range to do that. I just had a game where I got 5 kills with it on Fire arc because the enemy didn’t spawn SPAA

So you don't have time to duck behind trees to negate a missile that is coming from 7/8 km away?

skill issue, Yah 64 is completly balanced and its not going to change because you suck at playing it

I think it’s skill issue tbh I just had some better games . My main issue is not being aware of where the enemy spawn is so having trouble looking for SPAW
