I gave the siege chopper a long range but even when I deploy it, it doesn't fire on its own and when I do select a target it shows that it can't attack it.

So from what I understand, SCHD is just a dummy unit. If you look at the vanilla code, it doesn't even have the artillery weapon assigned. I believe the vanilla rules have a comment about it assigning art or something like that, but I have never played with the siege chopper and so couldn't really tell you what exactly it does.

What I can say is that you should probably be making modifications to the base siege chopper. The deploy weapon is on the Secondary tag and has DeployToFire=yes. Also, keep in mind that any weapon the chopper uses in-flight needs to be OmniFire=yes (you can use Phobos to make them turn to their target while firing though).

As Darkstorm said, [SCHD] is only used for the deployed artwork, the weapon is controlled by the Secondary= on [SCHP].
