The Nightbird's AGM should be Nerfed
As it stands now, the Nightbird can too easily solo any tank. It's AGM reloads way faster than a Jet and replenishes just as fast. This should be halved. Only the attack Heli should have that kind o...

There is a proposal to remove AGM missiles from Nightbird and replace them with wire missiles only. Here it will be more difficult to step on the technique so boldly. To hit with a rocket you will need to hover and aim, which automatically makes you an easy target. It will be very difficult to direct a missile in a direct collision, a high risk of a miss, thereby a chance of survival for equipment.
@AlkaniusRUS Rubbish. There is no "high risk" of miss. Wire guided is still guided and as long as the pilot is competent there no "high risk" of missing. With lock on missiles you also have to hold to get the lock so your point about the hover is a wash as both missiles require users to hover.
The wire guided missiles would instead provide the nightbird with MORE lethality especially given the nightbirds agility since these missiles can't be warded off by IR Smoke.
It's a trojan horse proposal and it's DOA.

@AlkaniusRUSRubbish.Perhaps there is some truth in your words in skillful hands, she is the same imba, but it will definitely be much more difficult to use her than AGM. I use TOW on attack helicopters and don't take AGMs on purpose as I am a BF4 fan and have always flown strikers with TOWs. With TOW you will definitely be an easy target for TOR or Foxes for a few seconds. Not only that, you will not have such an opportunity to send a missile from behind cover like an AGM, you will now have to lead the TOW to the target. This is now not the same principle, shot and forgot. And the further the target, the greater the chance of a miss, respectively, the chances for the survival of equipment.
