Scout Choppers
Scout choppers in Battlefield 4 if used correctly are game changers. Very quick maneuverability, strong against any vehicle with the correct loadout, and can be changed for any situation. For example, if there is a strong air resistance switch over to anti-air missiles, and with 2 good hits its game over. Or if Tanks are decimating your team, either grab a friend with an RPG, or switch to Laser Guided and do it yourself. At first scout choppers are hard to get a hold of, but with some practice it's easily done.
Loadout
Always choose 25mm over the 7.62 miniguns. It tears enemies apart like its nothing. I always use ECM’s as a countermeasure, but its preference. I usually use belt-feeder, but after seeing the proximity scan I may change to that. Keep moving otherwise you'll be bogged down by AA from infantry. The Anti-Air is incredibly powerful against this chopper, so be weary, and get some buds to deliver the pizza.

Here are some stats, courtesy of - http://symthic.com/bf4-vehicle-stats?SCT_HEL_Weapons
Max dmg vs Inf = 10.5

Reload Time = 2.5
Drop Of Start = 250
Drop Of End = 500
Flares
Heat based countermeasure that will distract incoming guided weaponry and break locks for a short period. Passive radar missiles can easily defeat this by maintaining visual contact and reacquiring the lock after the countermeasure has expired. They are, however, exceptionally effective against heatseekers including MP-APS..
ECM
Provides both a visual obstruction in the form of a smoke cloud and removes your signature from enemy radar for a short period. Like flares, ECM will disrupt incoming missiles and break locks. ECM's disadvantage is that moving at full speed during deployment can remove you from the ECM cloud's sphere of protection allowing missiles to re-track and hit. If moving at full speed it is recommended that you either dive to the floor or ascend to the invisible flight ceiling to induce a missile crash.
Fire Extinguisher
May only be deployed when the vehicle is in a critical state. Will remove any debilitating status ailments and if the vehicle's health is below 37% it will restore it to that number.
