They would, but the AI in its current state is not set up for handling VTOL flight. iirc the AI AV-42s and F-45s don’t really “fly” when you ask them to take off/land in VTOL, they just play an animation

I too desire helicopter enemies to shoot at.

I made some players act as OPFOR in helicopters and be an asymmetrical enemy to the team with jets in a very mountainous terrain and not only was it a lot of fun the bastards actually whacked a couple of us with stingers.

I am thus necroposting to express my hope that the AI will be made capable of working with helicopters someday. The janky way I would try to design it, though it would be hacky, is BS the helicopters as slow flying planes with no stall speed and VTOL animation. From there I would make the turret its own sub-unit hard point like ships use for their guns, and the gun would just target anyone who flies in range of it. I am fine with this being a little aimbotty in exchange for the helicopter AI probably being dumb as hell.

But a more elaborate solution would be even nicer.

Obviously cargo helis are also delightful enemies to shoot.
