Helicopter behavior

aiknx999 · 09-20-17, 12:17 PM

While having to deal with missions involving tender or landing force elimination, after sinking all the ships I sometimes encounter a lone ASW helicopter from one of the sunk escorts still chasing me around the sea for some time. My question - what would be the standard thing to do for a helicopter in this situation in real life? For me it seems quite unreasonable for the helicopter to continue the hunt with limited fuel/range and its' landing pad sitting on the bottom of the sea, especially if it could still make it home if it started flying there immediately.
I do admit that I haven't played Cold Waters with newer patches all that much and I haven't noticed this behavior happening that often, but even if this has been patched, I'm still curious about that.

Cheers!
