spy plane!


I'm bored so I'll post another one of those cool ideas that will never get implemented cause they're dumb.

I'ts a spy plane, which unlike the other aircraft uses standart wings and a little motor. it is NOT stealth, but missiles can't lock on to it. it has about 100 hit points, and is classified as a veichle. can't go under 10 KPH and over 50. has 2 cameras, standart forward facing and a down facing camera. uses UDLIS (Ultra Dark Light Imaging System) to make AMS and cloakers glow orange. I'ts based on the Delta wing concept so it can carry all the instruments. the bottom of the wing also acts as the dish.

it carries limited energy so it can only stay outside a friendly SOI for 5 minutes before it loses power and starts to glide down.

because it carries sensitive intelligence data the moment it touches the ground a 10 second timer is started and it self destructs with a powerful explosion that can really hurt anything around it, unless of course it's destroyed first.

the plane can only be aquired with the tech plant benefit and once every 5 minutes.

It's a neat little idea, but I really doubt we need another anti-cloaker method.

Like the idea of a "spy" plane. CR5's could readily use something to that effect (assuming thier compentent). But a Mossy w/o weaponry, high speed, w/cloaking similar to the Inf. ATV and advanced "spy" equipment could be beneficial. Nor do I see a reason to have it self destruct.

sounds good, the camaras need a good zoom to work propoly, could work by gliding down to earth, and "lock on" systems so people can see tanks/etc on radar

Sorry if this is blatantly obvious to all but me, but who aside from the pilot could view the movie? Or would it be a fraps like thing? Could the movie be viewed by say your SL while in game?

The Mosquito is a fine spy plane. And what's so bad about having a gun on it? Seems like a fine bonus to me...

The gun isnt an issue as much as the absurdity of it...

Course being an Enforcer driver I get reminded of it all the time...

You cant have a plane that cant be locked onto by missles TR gets the advantage in air for once there. They could still hit it with the burster. O wait if it flew really high you couldnt hit just like a lib o damn o well we suck.

No, it would come up on the raidar, like when someone on your side see's a tank, it comes up on raidar, but with this air craft, everyone on your side in a large area around the air craft could see it on their raidar.
