Plane users are royally f**ked
Not really! The purpose of this is to ensure that there's always a fighting chance and a counter, we found that its often quite possible to take a wildcat out within a strafe or two and that is quite easy pickings for aircraft, especially considering that it's an anti-air vehicle. We don't anticipate this to wreck havoc across the airspace, and if it does - then it gets brought into line :)
