So, I was playing a round of Conquest Large on the Russian team, on Caspian Border. I'd jumped into the Russians' mobile anti-aircraft vehicle and begun attacking a hostile attack helicopter. I ended up destroying the aircraft and killing its pilot (I don't think there was a gunner) with the vehicle's main guns, and the game gave me a 'Roadkill' bonus. (Note – This helicopter was a ways away, and there was no one around me.)
Does anyone have an explanation for this or has anyone else experienced this?

If you disable a helicopter(or a jet) that then falls down and explodes it is treated as a Roadkill. I do not know if it's a bug or if it's meant to be like that, but it is like that.
A discussion about that can be found here.
