Yes they are testing it as an anti drone weapon it would leave the gunner exposed though so I think it should be made into a CROWS type of system with some sort of assisted aiming ability

It can be put it as an Separate modification that you have to research.

Such a system has been tested on CROWS. Haven’t seen it visually on an Abrams yet however it has been said to have been tested on one.
Any anti-drone weapon, system or vehicle (if it’s reliable against other ground vehicles) should be welcome. If Gaijin ever consider adding player-controlled infantry like in Armored Warfare where it can take important tasks like anti-tank engagements and keeping controlled zones could be incredible with adding of anti-tank drones either player controlled or controlled by the game itself, at the same time I think it will be just way too much.

i dont see it being very effective against drones with its somewhat limited elevation

I mean the modification is still only in the testing phase so who knows how they modify it in the future
that is true
but there are probably better ways to defend against drones than a manually controled minigun
imo i pretty good interm solution would be to use a tanks APS to kill the drones

Yeah that’s why I said they should pair it with a CROWS turret and some sort of targeting system but I could see an improved APS doing a similar function too but they would have to tune the APS to be able to detect slow movements also which could then cause odd things like a bird to set off the APS
probably.
either way a tank with a minigun to deal with the russian AFV spam is needed
I mean I don’t think the .30 cal m134 would do a whole lot to AFVs
i think there are ways for MMW radars to differentiate between materials (not 100% sure)
or the radars could look for the rotors of a drone which should be highly visible on radar due to them spinning so fast

Spamcanons with next to no pen are a meta in the game, throw enough at anything and it explodes for some reason

Maybe slip a couple rounds into the turret ring and optics but I think it would be annoying at most
theres a reason i play with particles off. to stop spamcanons getting a free win because they just blind me
i rather die a bit more often than my game looking worse
its not noticable in game ngl
