AH-6 Overwatch is an AH-6 Little Bird that hovers over the player as they travel through the map, and will attempt to kill any enemies encountered. The AH-6 conveniently takes about 3-5 seconds to arrive, and lasts for 60 seconds before leaving unless it's destroyed. It is equipped with two very powerful miniguns almost identical to the sentry gun, including its effective range. As with all other helicopters, the AH-6 will not engage enemies with Blind Eye. In general, the AH-6 overwatch is favored in more mobile runner classes.
In order to engage an enemy, the helicopter must be facing in the right general direction, which depends on the player's position. When an enemy is encountered, the AH-6 will shoot at the enemy player until the enemy is killed, until the player is killed and respawns, or until the killstreak itself runs out. It should be noted that it will not disappear after the player is killed; it will simply follow the player back to where they spawned. It is often useful to not respawn immediately, as the AH-6 will stay in the place you died, which may pay off if the area you died in is full of enemies.
The AH-6 has no flares to defend itself, so only one shot from any missile launcher or SAM Turret is required to destroy it. Despite this, the AH-6 is quite nimble, and can sometimes sidestep missiles fired at it. It can also be destroyed with about 2 magazines of an assault rifle or one well thrown EMP grenade.
