{Man this old whine again. Its simple don't ho a tank and you wont get shot down}
Then Hitech should mount the Mk108 in the K4 in a manner that wherever you look as the pilot, the tater will fire your line of sight. Then HOing a K4 will be a 360 degree affaire regardless of the direction the pilot is flying. Ooops, some modern attack Helo almost have that with the 30mm slaved to the pilot's 21st century super TrackIR. Back to M1 Abrams and (DM11 or AMP)rounds and it's fire control computer.
But, if I were a lawyer this is moot where GV are concerned because the front page only says: Aces High takes the "art and science of vintage WW1 and WW2 air combat".....
Thus no expectation set of: Aces High takes the "art and science of vintage WW2 ground combat".....
So all we really need is to have M1 Abrams skins made for each of our tanks since only our planes are reasonably limited to WW2 technical limitations. Our tanks are in a whole other time period class when they interact with our WW2 technology limited planes due to their commander mode. I had not thought about it but, unlinking the commander view 360 from turning the turret would place them back in WW2. I watch many tanks these days from full zoom in my IL2, turn the turret in concert with my IL2 timing for the entry or exit shot. I'm more impressed by the ones who understand turning the whole GV to face my attack run with armor too thick for the NS-37 to penetrate. Tanks can turn faster than an IL2 in a tighter circle neutralizing the angle of impact of the 37mm round.
In ww2 tanks often had some form of mobile ack moving with them expecting air attacks. We have bomber formation mode at the players choice. Why not 1-2 mobile ack formation truck or half track mode for tanks. Give them the same unlimited ammo and AI aiming of field ack. But, once destroyed that's it until the player re-ups another tank. If the player is killed the drones disappear. Supplies can fix them but, one box to each vehicle, even if they don't need them. Then you can get rid of the M1 Abrams computer aided main gun shooting planes currently in force.
Some unintended consequences would be mobile ack hoards brought along to frustrate low attacking aircraft by spawn campers or spawners in their assult. Base defenders upping tanks and not wirbels so they can kill jabo while defending against tanks, even using their AI as decoys. The lone M4 rocketeer might get more buildings down in your town with his own AI ack wagons when the lone fighter ups to see why an out of the way town is flashing. Even that GV who always sneeks up to the end of your runway might just make things worse.
