for me, linebacker
the guns are not so usefull against air targets, most of the time missiles will do the job.
The gun on the linebacker is better against ground targets and has a higher splash dammage. If you hadnt noticed, a skilled linebacker driver will always win against a skilled tunguska driver. The cannon on the linebacker is stronger against armor, and you dont have the round thing in your face so you can see where you are shooting at.
Linebacker all the way, for all the reasons stated above plus some:
Linebacker is faster and turns on the move, like an APC, whereas the Tungaska slows to a crawl if you try to make quick turns,
Linebacker has more torque and will climb hills that tanks cant climb(unless they know how to drive).
Faster missile reload- I time it at 3.5 seconds, a full 1.5 second sooner than the 'gaska.
Allthough it's capability to down a blackhawk is on par with it's competitors, it takes down the guppy in half the time.
Ya see, I hate hate hatehatehatehatehatehatehatehatehate being bombed.. it's loud, degrading, and goddamit.. I just traveled 2.5 minutes across the map..grrrrr
So I learned to drive AA..have and hold over 100 hours and a 6:1 ratio with it, and got the expert badge before the requirements dropped.
I did it almost exclusively in a linebacker.
Beware the mother effer that flies over me, AA is an art and a science, and I have a masters degree.
