@SpudBug At least it’s only the Nightbird that’s one hit. Apache & Hokum are two, and the Hind takes three, maybe four. I still get eaten by Nightbirds regularly lol.

Wrong, the bf4 soflam did not need anyone looking through it to be effective.

  @fragnstein Youre right, the SOFLAM in bf4 was a completely different gadget that needed to be set in place and only pointed in one direction.
  
  The soflam in 2042 is more like a super powerful PLD that allows you to use it anytime while also locking targets without maintaining line of sight or exposing yourself by using the gadget.
  
  So I agree with you, the 2042 soflam is way overpowered!
