Add more fighters, give the tanks a break
A-10 and Su-25 support is overpowered. One of the main complaints about Kashan is how fast you die in vehicles. This is because there just aren't enough planes in the air to cover even half of the exposed targets. SAM's won't hit anything above 1000, not to mention the already poor accuracy of the missiles. If there is a patch for 0.6, then would it be possible to add 2 more fighters for each side? This would just allow tanks to last a little bit longer. Right now, having equal numbers of fighters and bombers (I'm speaking in the sense that they are all somewhat competent in flying, and attack pilots who can survive for a significant portion of the game), causes fighters to fly in circles with massive gaps in coverage. You can only look at a certain section of space for a few seconds and then need to turn somewhere else. At the bare minimum, you would have a much smaller amount of competition and idiocy involved with flying. Those being base raping (since you could actually cover your base) , teamkilling (Still done despite the holds on kits put in place), and allows for more open pilot slots so you can actually get in a plane once in awhile. Lastly it would make it so that you can't just fly anywhere you like. Well, here goes...

Until AA can be made as good as it should be, and people wont simply switch over to 32p Kashan.
The M1 is a rickety enough beast without the added worry of the Frogfoot swooping gracelessly over the battlefield.
Its even worse on the T-90. In that baby I'm used to being master of the battlefield. And I don't want some jumped up flyboy in his damn A-10 trying to knock me down a peg.
We need better missiles and an improvement in aircraft dynamics.

The key to modernising any weapon is covering them in glue and tossing them in a barrel of M1913 rails until they look "Modern" enough.

If anything, we don't need more people camping at the airfield for MORE planes. Not enough Grunts on the ground, everyone wants to be in a vehicles these days.
Aircraft need to have reduced armor also. I fired 3 missiles at the F-16, they all hit, but the F-16 just shrugged it off like it was nothing. It may be hit detection, but seeing that just fustrates me. Same with the A-10 making a direct dive at the AA, while the AA is firing at the A-10 and not having made a single dent on the A-10 while he annihilates you with his bombs and that cannon of death just sucks.
Although the AA needs to be tweaked, Ive ran several dedicated AA squads, the lock ons tend to scare off Aircraft, and friendly aircraft can fall back behind your positions if they have fighters on their tail.
