You sir(?) are doing the good work.

We’d have half as many of the problems we do now when talking about nations to be added in the future if that was how sub-trees were in the first place, as that gets rid of the fundamental problems of sub-trees well also keeping what made them a good idea in the first place.

Which I think is a bit of a double standard

Why is it OK to continously add vehicles of one warring party each update, but none of the other?

Here you go

Ah yes, modern gunships

Spoiler

Why would they even consider adding something like that?

For the memes.

I just want my AC-130 I don’t care if it would be awful I can make my own fun

There’s so many aircraft that would be god awful to play in real games but that could be fun in other ways. Like again the AC-130 and other gunships, some weaponised transports like the UH-1Y (might not be bad since it’s basically just a modern Huey) and even the V-22 (trialled with chin mounted guns, a belly mounted turret like what is on the AH-60 and Hydra rocket pods I believe).

I would like to see M18 Commander with ragdoll physics.

I do wonder whether AC-130, MLRS, etc should be added as alternative to artillery (im not proposing CoD style killstreaks here) not that you can control where the hits land anymore than you can with the regular artillery we have now. But perhaps with different kinds of hits

MLRS = bigger but fewer impacts over a wider area but more serverly impacted by terrain and buildings due to angles

AC-130 = Wider range of impact types, wider area than standard artilllery, but faster call in time.

Or something to that effect, but at its core. Its more aesthetic differences.

Don’t get me wrong, I would love to see things like the Osprey or some of the ACs, but I really don’t see how you could make them work at all.
If they get guided weapons they can’t go to a low enough BR to be useable and if they are limited to turrets they would just be bombers with fewer or even no bombs

They could be ok in Sim, like a lot of aircraft that are bad in RB they can be somewhat effective in Sim.

Would they? What would they provide for Sim that bombers and strike aircraft couldn’t do better?
