There does not seem to be a lot of information on this craft... I didnt see anything show up on the auto-search when you start a thread, so I would like to know some more details, if I missed stuff.
Is it 2 or 3 crewed? From last I think I heard... it was still a 3 crew craft, but that tail gun needs to be worth a damn, or it will just be superfluous.
What kind of gun does the pilot get? I kinda liked the forward gun in PS1, I hope the forward-arc gun is decent. I like the gunship feel... popping over trees or structures to fire, then dipping down, or running a strafe. Hide n seek kinda stuff with an aircraft, saw helo pilots do this in the marines, always thought it was cool.
Most importantly for my daughter/gunner... what is the main gun now supposed to be like? I read somewhere it is similar to an AC-130?! LOL, thats going to be one mean sumbitch... I think that would be like firing a howitzer from the sky... has the main gun-type been verified (as much as it can be at this point...)? I hope it is not fired from just one side like the AC-130, I prefer a more centered gun... though it would be hell-in-air to have a flying howitzer...
From my questions, you can see that I am trying to wrap my head around how to employ this thing, so help me out here...
