Return of the AH-64 Apache on Karbala

[Bazul14]

The US would really need its Apache back on Karbala. The Abrams often dies in the first 50 min. Even if it would not die, there are many areas where the Abrams can not go, like the tight, small streets in the suburbs. An Apache on Karbala would give the US a lot more chances of winning, while making the map a lot more realistic. IRL US has CAS available in an insurgency, either in the form of Apaches or jets. The LBs are good, but they must dive to attack and often get owned by a guy soloing a techie. Rarely the LBs go high and communicate in a way to prevent them from dieing less than every 10 min. An Apache can hover, and it can not fear jets, since OPFOR does not have any. As for the soundbug and all that...., well how about the LBs, are those sound bug proof?!?

I'd be happy seeing an apache again, if the abrams was removed along with the little birds, probably the strykers also and only have soft skin vehicles like the hummer. But strkyers + apache + abrams = unbalance.

Re-suggestion, but I agree with your title.


However, posting "The Abrams often dies in the first 50 mins" isn't a reason to why the apache should be put in, because one squad might not use it correctly, or be doing very well and have a bomb car/garry rush/mortar strike kill them..

IRL the US mostly have CAS available, but not all the time. Sometimes AA in the area will block off locations in which they can use it (which the insurgents do have, AA positions and AA kits are by the mosque )


Also, the DEV team won't remove an asset because of sound bug. There must have been another reason to why it was removed. However, nobody knows that except the DEV's, or anyone the DEV's told =P


[EDIT]


@Rudd: I agree, but maybe just remove the littlebirds and abrams. Or, Have Apache, Abrams, and 1 Stryker. All Factions should have some method of transportation, unless you plan to ferry one troop at a time in the gunner seat of the apache ;P

The Apache was removed because it doesn't fit the map size and view distance. So I doubt it will return.
