Also, hover tanks and AA mech robots.
Saying that though, BF2 had a bit of a bug in it where you could fly a helicopter straight towards any AA and it would consistently fall underneath you. I was lethal with that. Also, I really love the fact that DICE basically hired the developers of the BF1942 mod Desert Combat to make BF2
