@Its_Travis_199 It's fair to say that there are many people who complain about balance whilst taking full advantage of necessary counters available, people who work together. These complaints should not be dismissed as they are fully valid.
I've posted proof that Rao's hack is inconsistent, no word on that being fixed. The same bug is present with the SOFLAM. Why would anyone waste their time using team support gadgets when they don't work properly.
In summary of your argument it is apparent that you deem apparent imbalance as something that stems from a "skill issue", this is unequivocally false when the tools available are themselves to blame, when a tool such as the 20mm AA Flak is introduced, a tool that works as intended despite a hit notification bug, it should come as no surprise that people will use what's best available to deal with aircraft. To then completely remove it instead of making minor adjustments and fixing the associated bug just tells you a decision was made on the spur of the moment.
In a nutshell, a viable tool was removed when it should not have been removed.
