Why ?
IMHO, any other fix than a synthetic cut in the modeling is better.
Seems to me there are good alternatives, mentioned in this thread, like no spawning off buffs after hangars are killed for example.
In any future scenarios, where fields might be vultched on takeoffs, I would like to be able to shoot back, even while rolling.
(assuming 2 crew, 1 gunner)
On friendly collisions matter, Gazoo et others makes good points, its not a good idea now.
