They seem to be sticking to machineguns, are they in no way capable of using modern armament?
Also they seems to be completely incapable of piloting helos, they go inverted or do some loops and crash

I used AI Mi-4 successfully but only as individual flights (no formations), no ground attack, no take off/landing.

as far as I experience, AI can use missiles of course but only if they make contact visually first. They cannot use the "distant lock on" features like radar.

But that's kind of fine since most of the time modern air engagements are few planes anyway and then only one or two missiles fired - and it is going to be me and not my wingman   (wingmen can shoulder-shoot and steal kills with sidewinders....)

Helos are tricky AI wise. You need to use the specific AI slots for AI flights, not the same plane slot as the one you use for piloting yourself. these are called "AI buddies". The player aircraft Heli flightmodels can't be handled by the AI, so these are special extra slots. (sadly these do not exist for every helo)

But the AI buddies can do anything, also attack ground targets.
