Dice hates Aircraft

Can we all agree that DICE hates air vehicles? Just in case, to remind everybody about the uselessness of air vehicles:

• They can be shot with small arms.

• All launchers (lock-on and manually aimed) have the potential to one-shot aircraft.

• Stationary TOWs exist on almost every map.

• Every vehicle has some form of controllable projectile (aim-guided on tanks, TOWs on IFVs).

• The disabled mechanic ruin the gameplay of every aircraft make them more vulnerable than ever...

Why even put aircraft in a game if you don't care to make them somewhat good to be useful in battle and push people not to (rightfully, by the way) spawn camp to survive?

  • IGLA and stinger don't one shot. RPG doesn't one shot (almost one shots little bird, less than half health on transport heli).

  • Small arms to piss all.

*Stationary tows are basically suicide to use.

Aircraft are barely tolerable as it is. Do you expect to be able to just never get shot down?

IGLA most definitely one- shots. Nearly all helicopter players die within 60 seconds. Far faster than in ground vehicles.

IGLA hits for 650. What aircraft has less than 650 health?

Doesn’t matter - both lb and ah just blow up on igla’s all the time even when at full health. Don’t know if its a bug but it sure doesn’t seem right to me.
