Re: Nightbird's miniguns are FAR too effective against Jets (and attack choppers)

@EA_Leeuw 
Please consider this thread for the upcoming Jet Rework.

I've only used the nightbird for about 15 hours and until recently, I was exclusively using the 20mm cannons and AGMs (because this loadout makes the nightbird more effective than jets against ground vehicles, while still being surprisingly good against aircraft).

During the 2-3 hours I spent testing the miniguns (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=18yic5G8RJk), I found the miniguns to be too powerful against jets, attack and stealth choppers.

Now, some would argue that the enemy pilots were noobs; that's not entirely true, the compilation also includes some good-pro pilots and I must also stress that I myself am a nightbird newbie (have barely used the miniguns and I'm on console - no aim assist for vehicles). I was able to get some of the average/good pilots and often forced good jet pilots to retreat (despite being a new nightbird pilot). Also included a few bonus clips where, for example, I could dodge missiles simply by changing my altitude (which is silly considering that below-radar is a thing now).
