Recon Drone Killing Mortar w/ EMP is too Much

Note: I'm a closed weapons player. 

I watched a YouTube video the other day on TheCadWomen's channel, and I found out that the recon drone can kill a mortar guy with a simple zap. This is ridiculous.

Getting killed by the drone EMP as a mortar player is highly unrealistic and feels unfair.  It's a bit much. It doesn't make sense. Its used to fry technology circuits (or something similar), if I'm correct. So why is it killing people? 

And then you have the fact that the mortars visual perspective has been nerfed since BF1, which I'm actually OK with -- because Id rather have mortars in the game with this balance, than not at at all. But having that balance with the fact the Recon drone EMP can kill a player with a zap is obnoxious. Who thought of that? Its overkill.

With the amount of snipers that are on the field, I can see this getting very annoying. Because lets be real here, most snipers will probably use the drone to scout with the drone. And when they see a mortar: zzzt! Embarrassing...

And right now, it feels like support players are getting it rough by recons with this issue in place, and the fact that the suppression mechanic is non-existent since the beta -- and after watching all these videos with these larger maps. What's the point of support, then? More ammo? Lovely.

The EMP killing should be removed entirely.
