Hi, my first topic/post here.
Me and my friend fly a lot with the black hawk heli so I've got a few questions about the vehicle specs.
1) Do vehicle specs stack? i.e if I have damage reduction and he has damage reduction will that further lessen the damage received?
2) If I have extra damage and he has damage reduction will the helicopter in that case deliver extra damage to the gunners who shoot and I will still receive less damage from rockets?
An easier way to put it, do we share vehicle damage and reduction within the vehicle?
3) Are you sexy?
You are my bro, bro.

1) Nope, damage reduction will not stack and will still be 0.75x no matter how many people with Armor there are.
2) Nope, the pilot needs to have armor to improve the defenses of the vehicle. Someone in a passenger seat will not affect the vehicle's defenses. Vehicle Warhead is isolated to the player who has it. So the Pilot needs to use Armor and only the Gunner would get the benefit of extra damage if he uses it.
3) Yeah, I'm a dude gamer, don't hit on me you silly girls.

Are you saying that a tank gunny with armor and a tanker driver with warheads won't grant the tank 1.25 boost to it's main weapon and a 1.25 boost to it's overall health?

I think that's what he's saying.

The tank will have 1.25x health, the main cannon will have 1.00x damage, and the secondary machine gun will have 1.25x damage. Only the driver of vehicles can apply the armor spec.

I dunno Den, at least in the console version you can use armor as a passenger and the helicopter/tank/whatever will get the boost. Oftentimes while tanking on Arica Harbor Rush I'll be the gunner with Armor and the driver will have Reload, and there's a noticeable difference in damage the tank receives when I'm in it (21 armor loss, we end up with 79 armor from a direct shot at the front of the tank from another tank's main gun) and when I'm not (26-27 armor loss).
Maybe that's console-specific, but armor can be active even while not piloting/driving the vehicle on the Xbox.
