Don't forget the car windows.
Defeating helicopters with available tech
Since a helicopter is subsonic, why can't you use acoustic homing?
I remember this chase, I think the camera guy says hes at like 6 -7 miles away. News companies assist with chases like that so their equipment is similar to Police shit.
The laser light show was trying to get the chopper to crash on purpose?
Lol put tannerite on a Drone and fly it above the blades
You shoot them. HMGs can fire well up to 2000m, get anything remotely high cal and shoot it at them.
In the modern battlespace, helicopters have little combat role. Their role is primarily reserved for recon and rapid troop transport, the former of which is more of a thing reserved for conventional warfare, rather than the asymmetric warfare of today.
What the Canuck above posted is also somewhat relevant, as due to widespread hobbyist electronics anyone who put their mind to it could no doubt build a basic MANPADS. I think I remember reading something about ISIS building something of the sort when they were at their peak.
Even if you couldn't cobble together an IR seeker (which is straightforward in concept if not in execution), what about massed "dumb" rockets with either a range or altitude-based fuse?
Jerry rigging AA sights onto any big boy round, think 8mm, .30-06 for example and it shouldn't be too much of a challenge especially if its slow moving Hell, 7.7 Arisaka's came with an AA sight on them. On the topic of MANPAD's as the cap I provided, it shouldn't be too hard to do them given a basic rocket launcher set up is less than 40 dollars of shit, I'd convert my bazooka over to something that theoretically heat seek but the 2" tube I'm using just dosen't afford me the lovely space needed.
I wouldn't bother with a range/altitude fuse, I'd go for something a little more man controllable like a remote of some sort think a prepaid phone.
