CAS is currently way to easy to spawn, and can dominate an entire match. GRB players use tank scopes A LOT, so they can’t really see anything when a plane bombs them back to the stone age. Hearing them is also not helpful as you won’t know if the plane is targeting you or a teamate. A lot of tanks also don’t have any defense against planes since they lack MGs. I think that each player can spawn up to 1 plane per match, and can only rearm at their airfields once. Once a tank or SPAA shoots down a plane, that plane should not be able to drop bombs or strafe an enemy. They should instantly be returned to the respawn screen. Thxs for listening to this post, and I hope you join the fight against CAS.

come to terms with it!
Yes, 11.7 CAS is OP.
It’s not easy to spawn though. 900SP is not easy to get.
Yes, new SPAA for the top end needs to be introduced to make CAS killable there again.

There are no mechanics that encourage revenge bombing.
SPAAG below radar is hilariously easy to use once learned and CAS is only effective well in the range of SPAA until 11.3.

Midair spawn is exclusively a time reduction. It offers nothing for “revenge bombing”.
I have the kill camera disabled because it offers nothing other than lost time. It offers nothing over just knowing map positioning.
Capture points have nothing to do with revenge bombing either.
LOL! This is not what balancing is at all.
It’s not a “powerup” it’s an alternative method of action.
And for a plane to warrant 900SP, it needs to get 14 frags in one life to be equivalent to getting 2 frags in a tank.
Let alone the lower BR’d aircraft that are always within range of enemy SPAA.
Thanks for resorting to insults as your way of admitting your posts’ points are incorrect.
The way CAS is implemented, ingame makes it a power up. You spend more SP for a much better and much more difficult to kill vehicle. Planes should be made more expensive to spawn, since being able to be neraly immune to death, and being able to get easy kills is not balanced.
It is very easy to get out of range of SPAA, since their range is 1km at most. It is also easy to bomb, or shoot at any SPAA at lower BRs.

Here’s the best solution, more people being incentivized to use SPAA and fighters. Perhaps even fixing the damn barring compass that only shows in planes if you go to the virtual hud display aka press V or whatever it’s called 3 times and the final thing needed is the option for people to stay “Hey we need Anti Air now!” or “Artillery here”
But that’s about all that’s needed.
Go post in one of the other 50 CAS threads we have up instead of making a new one

Another player unhappy with CAS but no TO mode and no answer from Gaijin as to why.
If a TO mode is so unpopular as a concept, then why do these threads keep appearing?
It has been suggested that we have a new and separate GRB with no tanks to run alongside the original GRB so those who want a rest from planes can have one without CAS as we know it being touched or nerfed in anyway.
Too logical for Gaijin and too logical for many of the players as well it seems.

This is not a TO topic however.
The answer is that, just like all duplicate topics, the OP either has not realised or is just very disrespectful to the forum by ignoring our rules here.
Number of posts =/= popularity. As you can see from your engagement in the AB side; it is much more popular (by a lot) but no real presence on the forum.
Again, OP might want a new mode but that is not the topic they are talking about.
This lack of cohesion among those wanting change is a good sign as to why nothing ever changes, and been pointed out for years with no change to attitude (minus your attempt).
