This helicopter was introduced in the December update<\/a>. From the start, the description of its GiatAM<\/a> gun erroneously stated that it can destroy both surface and air targets, while in-game, it could only target surface targets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the January update<\/a>, this has been fixed. The gun has been changed so it can now target both surface and air targets, making the helicopter much more versatile.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
