In the MED, one of the Blackhawks has the phrase "NO Die" in its name. This is an items.def attribute that allows the BH to take damage, but only down to 1 hp. Once it takes enough damage, it starts to smoke.

Matter of fact, I just tested an idea: using a .wac command to change any BH's hp to 1, all the BHs emit smoke.

But you could insert the NoDie BH and set up a guided RPG AI to attack it. That's how NL did it in the mission "Irene."

There are .wac commands that can force AIs into specific animations, but I don't know how to to get a corpse drag set up with them. I'll mess around with the question later tonight, though.

Also, each AI does the animation on its own... You know what? I'll just send you the map I tested this on.
