The Hurc and its smaller bro the C-123 Provider and the An-12 Were designed to take off Unprepared strips of 400m while carrying a full payload. modern fighter jets need longer take the Euro fighter the local airbase nr me has a runway longer than 2000m and it can only handle the 21 EF's that it holds, I'm pretty sure it can get to a suitable Height than half the map. but it would probably be too big to have on the current map sizes

Having an AC-130U in game might not be a bad idea, take a map like Kashan for example. Replace all the jets and Helos on the map completely, US get the AC-130U and tanks/armoured vehicles/ground transport etc, MEC get the same but no AC-130U but extra tanks to make up for this. This would give you a scenario like the battle of 73 easting on the ground, but with the added dimension of US forces facing greater numbers and having to call in heavy airsupport in the form of the U-boat.
It is not an unrealistic scenario, as it is common for Western armies to face superior numbers of inferior armour, but make up for the deficit in terms of technology and airpower.
The AC-130U would be a squad based weapon, in terms that you would need a pilot to fly, a gunner for each weapon and a member on the FLIR spotting targets. Which means 5-6 people in the squad to work effectively.

The C-130 is way too big for a PR size map!

What about it is too big? The engagement range? The distance required to fly around in?

@ hobo: The distance to fly around in.
Lots of people feel the maps are too small and i feel that they slightly are but IF/when PR maps become Larger as CA maps are now 8x8 whereas PR's largest map is 4x4. I did see some where that the Engine can have a map size up to 10x10 but the terrain to be made play able would need to be a Very Large static.
Also if you Gave the MEC more tanks or APC's then you would lose men off the ground.
