Since attack helicopters have not been armed with any rockets, dogfight is very easy. Always wins the team that starts shooting as the first, or shoots more accurately. The most important thing is that you do not get surprised by the opponent.
The bottom line is that the pilot should look at the minimap every several seconds. The time before another helicopter appears, after the previous one has been destroyed, is 80 seconds. This means that after a helicopter is destroyed, the pilot has roughly around that much time to take a breath. While flying helicopter, it is important not to stray too close to the enemy base. This is the most frequent mistake that causes the death of pilots. You can gain the upper hand,, over the opponent, thanks to the advantage of the height. It is always easier to attack while above the opponent.
As for shooting itself, both the pilot and the gunner should shoot in bursts, in order not to overheat the guns. Also, it is very important that you compensate for the movement of the enemy vehicle. Learning that takes, first of all, experience with the machine and hours in the air.
