Default Re: ATGM on fighters

Yes, I do understand bombs won't work on a tank. Thank you for pointing that out for me to further clear it up. And again, weapon class is great, but I can put the cannons and MGs that are Weapon Classed for aircraft on to tanks and other vehicles. Also, many of the same ATGMs are used on both Helicopters as well as a ground attack vehicle like oh..so a BMP.

The idea was to go with something different and not have the standoff attacking being the only attack fighters with Marerick style weapons do. Which is why I wanted to try the ATGM on them instead. Right as I have seen it, the fighter comes in, either it gets a lock and fires or it does and flies off, regardless of the other ordnance it's carrying. The only time I have seen them use the other weapons is when their LG missiles or bombs are gone and then it still tries to lock on and is very helpful in tell you it failed to get a lock on its target. Almost as if it wants to abort and fly away.
