Sorry my fine sir in attempting to prove me wrong you just proved me 100% right. There is no need for a FAC position.

Did i write anything about FAC?I tried to suggest something to people who are in need of FAC...

That would allow SLs, or whoever else would have the kit, to mark armor positions, and request airstrikes at smoke grenade locations. For added fun, make it a launchable grenade, so that the GL guy can actually mark distant targets with it.

The tank would just shoot said grenadier in the head. I mean unless you can throw 4000m, then the SL should just drop an attack marker down onto the tank.

Anyways, anti air is more of an annoyance. I mean the missiles are so lousy that even if you don't drop flares there's a 90% survival rate. And the Ack Ack doesn't have any aimers and they don't airburst so you can't get hit unless you're really bored and sleepy. They ground battle is actually decided by the skill of the MiG-29 and F-16 pilots. Once the sky is clear its like squishing bugs. I guess the missiles aren't THAT bad, but still, AGMs don't miss, so I really don't need to worry about whether the tunguska is gonna survive. In a jet at least I can run away.
