If necessary, note the specifics of the game in different modes (AB, RB, SB).'' -->
 As all helicopters (excluding Ka-50s), you should have a safe playstyle, ensuring that there aren't any SPAAs on the ground and other helicopters/jets in the sky since you haven't got any anti-aircraft missiles. The main advice is to stay at ground level to evade SPAAs' radars and keep looking for the enemy air spawns with the great thermal sight (and great zoom) you have installed on the chopper. The main way to protect yourself from helicopters is to wait for them to hover and using your ATGMs to take them out, but remember, farther you are, worse the accuracy of your missile will be. When you will be attacking ground vehicles, you should stay closer than 6,000 meters to the target in open maps, 4,000 meters in maps with few natural obstacles, like Ash River and 3,000/2,000 meters in maps with a lot of objects that occlude your view, for example, Berlin or Port Novorossiysk.

 <!-- ''In the description, the first part should be about the history of and the creation and combat usage of the helicopter, as well as its key features. In the second part, tell the reader about the helicopter in the game. Insert a screenshot of the vehicle, so that if the novice player does not remember the vehicle by name, he will immediately understand what kind of vehicle the article is talking about.'' -->
-After the creation of the A129 Mangusta, Agusta would develop a new variant known as the A-129 International which would incorporate a lot of improvements to better suit export consumer needs. Of these improvements included a new engine, advanced armaments and new avionics. Although it garnered interest to many nations, it wouldn't be picked up by any of them and thus what was learned from the International program would be applied on the A129 Mangusta upgrade known as the CBT for the Italian army. In game the A129 International has potent armament in the form of Hellfire anti tank guided missiles and Hydra unguided rockets. It also has a 50 cal turret which can be used against other enemy aircraft or open top/unarmoured ground targets. The A-129 International in game is very maneuverable thanks to the stronger engines, it is able to reach its top speed quickly and has a great surface celing. Protection wise sadly this variant of the International does not get access to flares or chaff, which can be a problem when enemy aircraft spot you. Usually a helicopter of this type would have access to anti-air missiles but sadly this one does not. That said if there is no enemy aircraft or SPAA the international can be highly effective in the right hands.
