Even jets can't kill Nightbird
The last adjustment made the Nightbird immune to vehicle missiles when flying close to the ground. Anyone who has ever flown a Nightbird will know right away that this helicopter is much faster ...

It's not impossible, but it sure is far more difficult than in previous BF games.
And if there is a good pilot/sweat in the nightbird, your jet will get ripped by the nightbird in mere seconds where you can only land like 10-20% of your shots while doing a run on it.
I agree that the target is far too small and far too agile.
Nightbird dominates other helos and the jets. It needs to be brought in line. It needs nerfing in both it's miniguns and it's UFO-like agility.
The guns on the Nightbird need less damage to vehicles, and overheat faster. It's like a continuous beam of bullets right now, and it affects your aim too (not to mention you're trying to hit that tiny dancing target)
- @Shibiwan Their accuracy on medium range could also use a nerf if you'd ask me. Let the sweats come closer to farm infantry, come closer for more risk to farm more. Makes RAO and the anti-armor grenade have their use.
- @Wargame_Enj0yer What do you mean medium range? They can still laser beam a jet at long range
