It’s the same M134 mount fitted to various helicopters and light Gunships. The drones are FPV and more than capable of targeting stuff other than Shaheds given the chance.
Just because it was converted for anti-Drone ops does not mean it’s all it is capable of. It would be far from the first plane in the game, or suggested, used for missions outside its primary purpose.
NGL, combined with prior aircraft and some others like the Bird of Prey UAV, a drone interceptor mode where you need to outlast the enemy team from an onslaught of drones would be pretty cool
The real Ho-Ri to replace the fictional ones, mainly to stop the myths of it being only a mockup that will be far more popular now that they are being removed.
