The wildcat is currently atrociously weak
The 2 non-joke primary weapons make you choose between being able to fight back against (30mm) nightbirds, stealth helicopters and jets that are flying about, or (35mm) attack helicopters, air transp...

Watch the latest YT video from Ghostgaming to see just how easy it can be to destroy the wildcat when 2 Jets work together. The new 800m jet pods are lethal. It's destroyed within seconds....
@MADMAC50K You dont really need teamwork to pull that off. Main jetgun 30mm does the rest for finishing off.

Didn't know that anybody uses 30mm, cause in dogfight and shooting inf its useless.
But hey, 2 jets. Try with aps sentinels. None jets will touch you.
- @Man_iLoveFishing 30mm is awesome.
Destroys other jets easily just have to lead the target.
As for ground targets strafing runs with 30mm can be difficult but not impossible. Each time that I use a wildcat I really hate how much of a dead zone it has when trying to aim at targets direclty above.
It makes no sense.
The EBLC-Ram with its 6 x missiles is far more lethal to aircraft up close than with the Wildcat and can better protect itself. The Wildcat is a poor excuse for an AA vehicle.
- @SlipperyLiz4rd Even the 20mm flak of the LATV jeep is more damaging than the wildcat within its effective range.
- @SlipperyLiz4rd Agreed AND if you have the gunner seats filled with AI its an unstoppable beast.
- @UP_Hawxxeye 100% agreed the AA needs a full rotation ability and an increased rate of fire
