i think that is more reasonible to use the sensors that are in the
helicopter. i think that the most weapons in aircraft and helicopters use
the sensors that on the aircraft and they do not have their own sensors
(expept the missiles) . the only thing is that the rigger must connect
his weapon to the central sensorselectronics systems that his 'toy' have.
