DICE stealth nerfed the jet 25mms

Just when I thought the devs might have finally gotten something right with the transport miniguns they come and do this. Now the transports are still impossible to take down. When the gun overheats and make the loop around all the damage done is already repaired. Even better, people kept parachuting out of it and launching rockets at me when I get in range. At this point, I just want to know why? I keep seeing the devs say that they are meant to be transports, yet everything they do suggests the opppsite.
Thanks for flagging, and sorry this was initially missed in the Update Notes. Here is what changed in Update 2.1:
F-35E Panther / SU-57 Felon - 25mm Cannon
- HeatPerBullet increased from 0.023 -> 0.028 and
- Dispersion IncreasePerShot increased from 0.032 -> 0.035
We'll have this change reflected in the Update Notes.

The numerical difference looks small. How did it manage to feel so much more for the OP? Unless the scale is not linear but logarithmic
It might be worth double checking if the new numbers actually match the current ingame values, just to be sure

For further added context, these tweaks are part of preparing for the change of Vehicle Categories that we want to release in a future game update.
This Jet change itself wasn't initially meant for this game update, so we might revert until we have the new Vehicle Categories in place.
@Straatford87
Roger that.
I will make sure to give the jets a spin and compare the 25mm myself.
Thanks for the replies, I am really looking forward to the categories change cause right now almost nobody want to fly in a jet when they can select a more versatile helicopter.
Since the team is working on the jets, they might want to also look at the issue of how the SU-57 is much better in a dogfight than the F-35 due to faster turning speeds. Unless of course there are plans to add a new dedicated fighter for the US and a new VTOL jet for RU.@UP_HawxxeyeAgreed on jets imbalance. E-brake is not the way to win(solution) dogfight.
@Straatford87There's still the issue with the F-35 being waaay slower than the SU-57 so please take a look at that as well, that is an unfair advantage to the Russian team.
- @SkyL4Ncer21 Have we ever managed to even get that issue acknowledged?
It seems that as soon as this is brought up the reaction is ( ' ______' )
