Something like this:

Or perhaps the air to surface variant.

Kind of wondering how you would code the guidance system.  If you
make it like a flyable kamikaze, then you practically double the number of
sources that the FE/Host has to track.

     With a bad lag, it would be completely frustrating if not unplayable.

      I admit the "gee whiz" factor is very high, but it sure would be a
bear to implement.

if we are to get it (which i don't think we will) make it a perk weapon... say about the same as a Me-262. or higher.

  the game is concentrated on combat, not on shaking the screen.

Ohka with some 500 or 1000 perks would be a nice way to spend perks. One would lose that many perks and 1 life every time :)

It should kill a CV though...

Guide your weapons to the target by compensating for the drop of the projectile, the wind, the movement of the target, and your position relative to the target, it may not be as easy as lasers and X-wings but it is accurate when you get the hang of it!
