Date/Time of incident (ignore if linked to player report): 24.4.2015, 11:05 GMT, server #1

What was lost:

  • Ghillie suit + defender helmet + H.carrier rig plate Mk2 vest + rebreather + carryall backpack = 118350*
  • Mk18 ABR assault rifle + silencer 7.62mm + DMS scope + 10 mags for this rifle + 6 smoke grenades = 473000*
  • NVG's + GPS + rangefinder + 2 aid kits = 8400*
  • 1x Zip tie = 20000* 
Value of item/money lost ( Provide the grand total): 619750*, I hope the prices are right, for a non-donator.

Quick description of what happened: I've decided to fly a little bit with my Hellcat, after 3-4 minutes into flight, I've started to lose connection, the countdown went up to 10 sec, but I was already dead  3-5 seconds after the countdown started. I flew at a height of around 130m. After the countdown vanished, I would be still able to pull up, If I had not died before so fast(while sitting in the helicopter as the pilot).

I wondered, If this was caused by the ANPR system, which was presumably used by an officer, who was driving on the road bellow me. This situation reminded me of a similar situation, where I was again in my Hellcat as a pilot, a police helicopter came along, giving me orders to land & as soon as I've complied, my helicopter vanished & all of a sudden, I saw myself falling to the ground. This situation happened ages ago, when there was a problem with helicopters despawning by itself in midair.

All in all, I ask myself, If someone points the ANPR system at you(or even the "commanding mode" action key > circle), could it cause some lag or a bug with which either your vehicle despawns or you get killed in it.

Please post video evidence/screenshots here: I can't use shadowplay at the moment, new G-experience update is causing issues, but I've asked an police officer, who was at that point of time driving bellow me & was right at the scene, after it happened. I've kindly asked him, just to share a word over here(SGT Ximi Martin).

unfortunately, I can't verify this. 

if server goes down, you can quickly open your inventories and get screenshots... it's just useful to keep track of your inventories...

You don't buy a car and say no to the receipt....
