Vehicles too weak and too inaccurate

To put it simply, the vehicles are too weak and are not accurate enough. The IFV's gun drops almost as quick as a hand grenade. Past 70 meters or so its useless. In BF3/4 if you were accurate you could take out infantry from across the maps. There was drop but it was reasonable. Take Silk Road as an example, you could sit atop the mesa and pick off infantry in the sand dunes with the IFV before moving in. You could still get up close and fight, or stay at range. But a landmine or a bunch of infantry could easily swarm and kill you within seconds. It worked, played great, and was balanced. 

The tanks in BF6 are also just too inefficient. You get 19 rounds, which means you're constantly heading back to rearm. The range is also too low, and with only 19 rounds you can't shoot up buildings to dislodge infantry. The coax is the only decent weapon if you want to kill infantry. The main gun is practically useless and once you get up to 300-400 meters the accuracy drops off so far that you will need to return for resupply if you want to fight a single enemy vehicle. 

They pop just as easily if not more so than BF3/4. But they can't dish out any meaningful damage and their primary weapons are near useless. You can't out range infantry, you need to get point blank. The RPG-7 seems to have less drop so you'll be out ranged by that to. 

The support helicopters seem to get vaporized instantly by those emplaced AA guns (not the driving AAA/SAM). I've never seen one stay in the air for more than a minute. 

If you stick to the coax you can rack up some decent kills in the tank but you can't play aggressive, flanking just doesn't happen. Its just two tanks sitting on opposite hills, shooting the coax at infantry between, and largely ignoring each other (repairmen negate any damage). Its just... boring and not dynamic at all. 

This needs to be fixed. Increase the tank/IFV counts, reduce respawn, and make them much more accurate at range. For the people who don't like vehicles there is Team Death Match and Domination - Conquest without vehicles. Both great modes for when you don't want to play with vehicles. But don't allow the vehicles to be ruined just because people couldn't learn how to kill them in BF3/4. That is the draw to Conquest.
