00:03Welcome to the third season of the official Community Guide video series for ARMA 3.
00:08My name's Dyslexi, and in cooperation with Bohemia Interactive, I'm creating a series of videos to explain some of the
00:14basics of ARMA 3.
00:16If you're new to the Community Guides, be sure to also check out the previous episodes which focused on topics
00:20like infantry combat, multiplayer teamwork, and helicopters.
00:24As with ARMA 3 in general, helicopter usage is a deep topic with many facets to it.
00:29Today we'll be expounding on how to use them in combat.
00:31More specifically, let's look at how to execute a basic helicopter-borne air assault.
00:36We'll go over this from start to finish, from the initial pickup to the extraction phase after the mission's been
00:40completed.
00:42The benefits of air assaults lie in the mobility and flexibility that they offer.
00:46Helicopters fly fast, low, and you can land pretty much anywhere that you can fit the rotors into.
00:51With sufficient helicopters or multiple flights, you can transport a large number of infantry practically anywhere you need to in
00:57a short period of time,
00:58as well as pick them up and reposition them for new objectives with relative ease.
01:01It's a welcome option considering the massive terrain sizes of the Altus and Stratus Islands.
01:14To start out, the person in command of the mission will be choosing the landing zones for his elements and
01:19brief them to the pilots.
01:20The pilots, in turn, will assess these landing zones and adjust them as necessary based on their own personal experiences.
01:26When choosing a landing zone, consider what threats you're likely to be facing.
01:30Your mission briefing, whether it's a single-player or multiplayer scenario, should give you an idea of this, but remember
01:35that it could be misleading.
01:37Generally speaking, you want to play it safe.
01:39It's better to walk a bit further after landing than to never land at all.
01:44Look for LZs that are in positions that mask them from the most likely directions of enemy fire or observation.
01:49When your pilots are capable, try to pick landing zones close to cover and concealment, such that the dismounting infantry
01:54can immediately take up protected positions to fight from.
01:57Once the main landing zone or zones have been chosen, pick at least one alternate LZ.
02:02This is done so that in the event that the primary LZ is unsuitable for whatever reason, pilots can quickly
02:07move to land at an alternate that's been chosen carefully in advance, instead of as a spur-of-the-moment
02:12decision.
02:12When flying large elements such as platoons into an area, picking several different LZs and sending different helicopters to each
02:19will help to spread the unit out and give it more tactical flexibility upon landing.
02:23The vast and varied terrain of Altus and Stratus will make this a constant topic for evaluation.
02:28Not every location will have obvious landing zones, and you may have to be rather creative when the terrain seems
02:32sacked against you.
02:34There are a few additional considerations to help ensure a safe landing.
02:37The most obvious is having a gunship escort and prep the LZ in advance of the transports arriving.
02:43This isn't always possible due to mission design, but when available, it's a great way to provide security to the
02:47landings.
02:48The next best thing is to have a scout aircraft, one which can fly into the LZ and take a
02:53look around shortly before the transports arrive.
02:55Some transport aircraft, like the Hellcat, have powerful cameras that can observe an area from a safe distance.
03:00If you have this sort of capability, use it.
03:03When these aren't available, a decision must be made about how to approach the LZ.
03:07Either by flying directly into it, or spending a bit of time orbiting it to scout it out before landing.
03:12Choosing to land multiple aircraft at the same time can result in unexpected enemy fire dispersing amongst many targets,
03:18as well as having many weapons to return that fire.
03:21Whereas flying in single aircraft one at a time can allow the other aircraft opportunities to wave off from hot
03:26LZs,
03:26or provide aerial gunnery support during the landings.
03:35Once all squads and pilots have been briefed on their landing zones and objectives, it's time to load up.
03:40A troop load in a helicopter is known as a chalk.
03:42Due to cargo limitations, an element such as a squad may not all fit into one helo.
03:46It's important to make sure that each chalk has a leader in it, such as a squad or a fireteam
03:50leader.
03:50These leaders are extremely important.
03:52They ensure that their chalks load in the correct helo, they notify the pilot when their chalks loaded,
03:57and they provide leadership at the landing zone until such time as they can merge back into their parent unit.
04:02The flight from the pickup zone to the landing zone must be carefully planned for.
04:06Avoiding any known enemy locations is of course a key element,
04:09and the altitude and path chosen will be based on known as well as suspected enemy threats.
04:15Flying high works well in environments where the threat is primarily based on machine guns and other such weapons
04:20with limited range and targeting capabilities, but it doesn't work so well when missile systems are present.
04:25On the other hand, flying low makes one vulnerable to machine guns and similar threats,
04:29but generally makes it hard for them or missile systems to engage the aircraft due to low exposure times
04:34and masking terrain, trees, and similar.
04:37Of course, if you're flying low, it's essential to have good pilots who know their own capabilities
04:40and are able to avoid any obstacles such as power lines that might present themselves during low-level flight.
04:51The final approach to the landing zone requires the utmost in concentration from the pilots as well as door gunners.
04:57A good LZ approach is done in a smooth, controlled fashion.
05:00Being able to promptly land without floundering around is necessary to give any enemies as little time as possible
05:06to react to the presence of the helicopters.
05:08Note that pilots have the final say here and can call for a wave-off or alternate LZ if they
05:12deem it necessary.
05:14The pilots are the ones who know their capabilities and can make judgment calls about any threats or obstacles in
05:18the LZs.
05:19If they say they can't make it and they need to wave-off or divert, that's how it's going to
05:23be.
05:24Once an aircraft touches down, the pilot's the one who calls for a dismount, typically by saying,
05:28Go! Go! Go!
05:29This is due to the fact that only the pilot truly knows when he's fully landed.
05:33If embarked troops try to dismount on their own discretion, they may find that the first step out the door
05:37is unpleasantly long.
05:39When the troops have fully dismounted, the chalk leader tells the pilot he's cleared to depart.
05:43The helo's crew chief will also observe the interior of the aircraft and if he sees that all the troops
05:47have departed, he tells the pilot as well.
05:49The pilot leaves when either the chalk leader or the crew chief tells him he's empty.
05:53If the LZ is hot, which is to say that enemy fire is being received during the landing, the crew
05:58chief and door gunner will suppress known or suspected enemy locations.
06:01Upon landing, they'll hold fire to avoid hitting the dismounting troops, but after they take off, they can resume their
06:06fire.
06:07When taking off, pilots communicate their takeoff directions to each other in order to avoid mid-air collisions.
06:13While this direction should have been planned for in advance and briefed accordingly,
06:16unexpected contact with the LZ can cause an alternate route to be decided on the spot.
06:22Once all troops have been dropped off, helos can either return to base in anticipation of fairing in reinforcements or
06:27resupply,
06:28or they can stay in the area as reconnaissance or light air support.
06:31This is based on the nature of the threats in the area of operations,
06:34so don't expect the aircraft to stick around with heavy machine guns, vehicles, or anti-air missiles likely to show
06:38up in the fight.
06:46At some point, an extraction will be required.
06:48As with the initial landing, this too requires careful execution to pull off safely.
06:52When preparing for an extraction, ground forces attempt to move away from known or suspected enemy threats,
06:57searching for a pickup zone that fulfills the same criteria as the original landing zone.
07:02Once identified, ground forces move to the pickup zone and establish security around it.
07:06Ground leaders establish what order they'll extract in,
07:09with the first element to be picked up staying closest to the pickup site, while the other ones provide security.
07:14The pickup zone location is communicated to the aircraft, and if necessary, the ground commander deploys smoke once the lead
07:19aircraft is 30 seconds out.
07:21When operating in nighttime conditions, infrared strobes, lasers, and such can be used to covertly mark landing zones,
07:27while chemical lights and smoke grenades can be combined to give a very visible landing zone marker when light discipline
07:32is not a concern.
07:33Once the aircraft is on the deck, remember that for any given chalk, the leader will load into the aircraft
07:37last.
07:38He may have another person providing security close to the landed helo while the others load up,
07:42but once he knows his chalk is loaded, he communicates this to the pilot so that a speedy liftoff can
07:46occur.
07:47This process is repeated squad by squad and aircraft by aircraft until the pickup zone has been completely evacuated.
07:52Now, when all's said and done, and you've returned back to base after a successful mission, congratulations are in order.
07:57What you've conducted or participated in wasn't a staged cinematic event.
08:01It was a living, breathing, dynamic experience that took skill, knowledge, and coordination to pull off successfully.
08:07This sort of depth is a hallmark of the ARMA series.
08:09If you're anything like me, it's what keeps you coming back again and again.
08:23Now, if you'd like to know more about helicopter tactics, I'd recommend checking out my ARMA 3 TACO guide, which
