The JGX guns have a special modifier called air drag. This is what causes the projectiles to drop so severely. Without that the trajectory would be hilariously flat.

Not quite. What "drag" does is exert an opposing force on the projectile, slowing its speed over time. It functions similarly to air resistance in real life. The reason the gravity on the JGX is so low (2 versus 4 or 5 on other main cannons) is because it, and a handful of other weapons, use a "true ballistics" projectile type that calculates gravity differently from standard "ballistic" projectile types. Some other examples of weapons using this projectile trajectory type are the Thumper, Underbarrel Grenade launchers, the Buzzard, Glaive IPC, Flail.
With that said, the trajectory isn't "hilariously flat" at all, and remains far more severe than any other tank cannon.
