FOBs used to cost tickets in previous versions, but it was removed.

i'm pretty sure you don't, but i think you should lose a nice chunk of tickets when a fob is destroyed.

Only game mode where the enemy team loses tickets by destroying fobs is CnC?

Taking out FOBs reduces tickets because your team can cap the flag easier due to incapacitated enemy supply lines

FOB's used to cost tickets back then when building FOB's actually added tickets to the team (and when we used to have those sandbag bunkers, which I dont even remember why they were removed)

Why isnt there a canon on the Tiger Helicopter on Silent Eagle?
Dont say that the Tiger doesnt have it!

Welt der Wunder: Eurocopter Tiger vs. AH-64 Apache (1/2) - YouTube

And, will there be a Tiger model in the future release 1.0, that has a canon?

Posted: **2013-05-17 14:12**

Germany never bought the tiger with a cannon afaik.
Only France and some other countries have it.

Posted: **2013-05-17 14:16**

According to our military advisors the German Tiger has no cannon.
However, we might feature the French Tiger with cannon on one of our maps in 1.0.

German UH Tiger:

The UHT (from Unterst?tzungshubschrauber Tiger German for Support Helicopter Tiger) is a medium-weight multi-role fire support helicopter built for the Bundeswehr (German Armed Forces). Under an agreement between the German government and Eurocopter made in March 2013, a total of 57 Tiger UHs are to be procured.[74]

The UHT can carry PARS 3 LR "fire and forget" and/or HOT3 anti-tank missiles as well as 70 mm (2.8 in) Hydra 70 air-to-ground fire support rockets. Four AIM-92 Stinger missiles (2 on each side) are mounted for air-to-air combat. Unlike the HAP/HCP version it has no integrated gun turret, but a 12.7 mm (0.50 in) gunpod can be fitted if needed. The German Army decided against the French 30 mm (1.2 in) GIAT cannon used on other Tiger versions due to dissatisfation with the heavy recoil of this weapon.[citation needed] Another difference is the use of a mast-mounted sight, which has second-generation infrared and CCD TV cameras (range 18 km).

French Tiger HAP:

The Tiger HAP/HCP (H?licopt?re d'Appui Protection, French for "Support and Escort Helicopter" / H?licopt?re de Combat Polyvalent[72] French for "Multipurpose Combat Helicopter"[73]) is a medium-weight air-to-air combat and fire support helicopter built for the French Army.

It is fitted with a chin-mounted 30 mm gun turret and can carry 68 mm SNEB unguided rockets or 20 mm machine cannons for the fire support role as well as Mistral air-to-air missiles.

There are also other differences between the two than just the cannon and camo, such as where the optics are located etc.

This may also answer a few questions: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurocopter_Tiger#Variants

Its amazing what you can find out from a quick google search if you just look you know

So the french one can only carry hydra missiles?

I think you're switching something up right there

German Tiger = no gun, just different kinds of weapons systems and cannons on the side
French Tiger = big gun, different kind of weapons systems and I think no guns on the side

The germans developed a 30 mm gun pod based on the Rheinmetall RMK30 for the Tiger UHT

RMK 30 cannons have been proposed as upgrade for the Bundeswehr's (German armed forces) Tiger UHT attack helicopters. The UHT version currently lacks a gun, since the German Army was not happy with the recoil, accuracy and the range of the French GIAT 30 mm cannon which is fitted to other Tiger versions.

he Mauser RMK 30 wasn't present but Rheinmetall were giving out nice brochures. It is now being developed in 35 x 300 and 35 x 350 mm as well as the previous 30 x 230 and 30 x 280, with velocities of up to 1,480 m/s. This is getting seriously interesting, as a podded version hung off a light plane could potentially provide an anti-tank capability which would outclass the 30 mm GAU-8/A. This table gives details of the various RMKs while the chart shows how their muzzle energies compare with conventional weapons. Here's a nice pic of one on top of a Wiesel.

DSEi 2003

A tiger with an Antitank canon with no recoil better than the 30 mm GAU-8/A ! OH GERMANS ! always there to disign some good stuff. Image a 35 mm Gun pod on a Tiger

PS: Can you give the 30mm gun pod next patch for the german tiger instead so it will be 1 rocket pod 1 gun pod

Posted: **2013-05-17 17:55**

Yeah I was reading about the germans actually fitting that same 35mm on their weasel AWCs too or something. I actually dont see how you can fit such a monstrosity on these vehicles, the engineering must be so clever, the rate of fire is quite low as you can see, I guess. The cartridge is way bigger than what the HinD uses for it's nose gun.

That would be a brilliant weapon to use in PR, with a combat mix, it would be awesome air to air

Posted: **2013-05-17 17:59**

The thing with Gun Pods is they are optional and putting them on means taking other weapons off.

Posted: **2013-05-17 18:15**

I think most the pilots will prefer 200 rounds of 30mm and 20 rockets instead of 40 rockects and it will blance Air to AIR fights because without canon its realy going to be unbalanced without AA

Sorry if it has already been asked, but would it be possible to use PRSPY to see the next map set on a given server?

It already shows that. Click on a server so its tab opens, then look on the left side. It'll say "Next maps in rotation:" and list the next 3 maps.

I would be happy with less rockets and the machine cannon^^
will make the pilot think about using his rockets, so he wont waste them.
and the machine cannon will be fun because the cas chopper will do actual close air attacks

Posted: **2013-05-18 10:35**

Is it possible to give recoil on the attack helicopter canon?
