I found using these optimizes the chance of getting an AC130. Predator u kill 1-2 people. THen you call in the harrier. The airstrike itself kills 1-3 people, and if ur lucky, the harrier itself kills 1-2, and Kablamo! You have an AC130 or your chopper gunner. Personally i like the AC130 better, but i think its a matter of preference. I take a lot of joy in killing attack helis and pavelows, but cannot shoot down the airstrike, even tho u can shoot down the 4th harrier. But taht is just me. with these kill streaks ive had a bunch of matches where i go 26-0 or 30-0
AC-130 is great and all, but the massive reload times and not so friendly guns for insides of buildings aren't good for a lot of maps. AC-130 cannot, and will not, shoot into and through buildings, but the shots are 1 hit kills normally.
Chopper Gunner is good for a varity of maps, although, its not very powerful and it takes some good hits to kill with.
Like you said, Its definatly a preferance.
Oh, and with the Harrier? I personally hate the Harrier Strike. It kills fast, and can get many kills with it, but...! It stays in one single spot, easy for everyone to see and have fun shooting down.
Attack Helicopter on the other hand? It moves. It's mobile, and may be a tad stronger too! Harder to lock on to, plus nobody goes for a Attack Helo unless you get spawn killed by it. Harriers are a big target IMO.
