alittle smaller Cal to the Osty but a rate of fire like the M16,
wont need to switch back and forth between the M-16 and Osty now defending a VB.

If any of you have ever played janes WWII fighters, you will know being hit by one of these if even for a second will end your day, every time.


I know the thought might be making your smile right now, just remind yourself the reality of sometime, some day..it will be you on the bad end of this weapon platform. Lets hope you have the courage to smile then.

Whoopdedoo on the perk. One kill in an M16, landed or not gets that perk back.

I think perking something that can be disabled with less then ten .50cals is kinda stupid.

The vulchtards are already sweating and clammoring for a perk cost, and the ****ing thing's not even in the game yet. :rolleyes:  Tards.

Don't see why there's a need for a perk before we've even gotten it. One bomb and bye bye wirbelwind! It's also dead meat for any tank.

It's not even out and already people are complaining.

It wasn't the small shells, the reason it was discontinued was they found you didn't need to mount it on an expensive Mark IV chassis. It was just as effective on the back of a HT or Truck. It didnt go up against tanks, so the Mk IV chassis just made it slow, expensive, and more maintenance.

The Mk IV chassis was better put to use with anti-tank guns and turrets.
