Still though, who does it target? I can be standing under the chopper and not get shot because I had a bad K/D but if im kicking *** itll shoot me through a wall. Or if I am shooting at it with a LMG it will shoot me over anyone else.
I find that 95% of the time and enemy chopper comes in, I'm ALWAYS the first one killed by it. Usually I'm at the top of the list in score/kills and I'm usually the only one in the whole room not camping one spot with claymores.

thats what im saying.. besides recently... ive been sucking
I've noticed a few different things that weren't mentioned in any patch descriptions... some of them are probably wrong but I'm wondering if you guys can confirm things.
1. Flashbangs- can they hurt people anymore? I know stun grenades do a tiny bit of damage upon explosion (I saw a guy commit suicide with one earlier), but they also hurt on impact, with the same white ticks confirming a hit just like a bullet, allowing you to kill guys on Last Stand with stun grenades. It fulfills a challenge. But there is one for the flashbangs too and I can't get it anymore. I could swear that flashbangs used to do impact damage,, but they don't anymore. And I'm quite sure you got the little ticks to ell you that you had flashbanged someone.
2. Support kills. I'm certain that a few months ago the kills you got from a helicopter didn't contribute to earning a new one (even when you had died and reset your support). but now they sometimes do. Half an hour ago I got an airstike from using an airstrike, and when I used the helicopter earned by the second airstrike I got killed. That helicopter earned me a UAV, I didn't get any kills myself.
Are these random glitches or has something been changed or am I just delusional?

I'm not sure about the first one, but the second one has always been true to the game since the beginning. Helicopters do indeed count towards the ability to gain UAV, airstrikes, and even another Helicopter if you died immediately after calling it (the first copper) in.
In my experience the helicopters have killed me either because i am firing at either the chopper or the enemy, or sometimes if i am making a dash across open ground.
I think its just any opportunity it can get then it will try and kill you, it will end up covering the whole level with the route it takes so if your kicking *** then it will find you at some point and unless your hidden like bin laden then it will find and kill you!!!

That's not always true.
I was running and gunning on Crossfire once and racked up a 17 kill streak, and somehow managed to elude 2 choppers while doing it. I wasn't even trying to get away, I was just trying to rape some bitches.

Same here, crossfire rocks, and I had 34 kills there once. Even though I don't have 360, I've managed to get my friend promoted 4 ranks (38-42)
Helicopters add up kills for a UAV and I think an Airstrike but not another chopper.
Are you sure about that? I was playing last night and I could have sworn that I got my 7th kill from the chopper, and then the "7 Kill Streak" message popped up, allowing me to call in another chopper (I died almost immediately after calling in the first chopper).
Countdown is a pretty bad map. There is too much cover from horizontal fire (man shooting at man) but not much from grenades and virtually no cover at all from airstrikes and helicopters. The spawning can be horrendous too, when a whole team is pushed back into the small buildings. Its just plain slaughter.
But its still better than Downpour. If you spawn downhill you are ****ed, its that simple. What muppet gave the team uphill an MG and thought the little hole in the wall would compensate for half a team getting cut down? Idiocy.
The very worst map is Bog. Half the time it is crippled by latency, and when it does work the airstrikes ruin everything.
