Elevate your server's Air Support Unit to the next level. This Advanced Helicam Script is built from scratch to prioritize performance and realism. Unlike other scripts that rely on heavy HTML/UI files, this system uses GTA V Natives to draw a realistic military-grade HUD directly on the screen, ensuring 0.01ms performance at all times.

Whether you are tracking a suspect through a tunnel or lighting up a scene for ground units, this script handles it all seamlessly.

🔥 Key Features:

🎥 Advanced Camera System

• 3 Vision Modes: Standard, Night Vision, and Thermal Vision.
• High-Power Zoom: Smooth zooming capabilities for high-altitude surveillance.
• Immersive HUD: Custom-drawn crosshair, "REC/LIVE" indicators, and corner frames without using web interfaces.
• Passenger Access: Works for the Pilot, Co-Pilot, or any passenger seated in a police helicopter.

🎯 Smart Target Locking

• Auto-Tracking: Lock onto any vehicle up to 1200 meters away. The camera will automatically follow the target.
• Obstruction Detection: Realism matters. If the target drives under a bridge, into a tunnel, or behind a building, the lock breaks instantly with a "SIGNAL LOST" warning.
• Smart Reset: Audio feedback when a target is locked or lost.

🔦 Networked Smart Spotlight
