Maybe that helps: Krow, some coms and most striders have Dgun. Tick, Snitch, Skuttle, Limpet, Blastwing and Thunderbird can fire instantly. Recon com, Dirtbag, Detriment and most jumpies can jump. Swift can boost. Lobster can throw. Charon, Hercules (and Surfboard) can transport. Charon and Hercules can eject cargo. Djinn can teleport. Flying units can land. Athena and some coms can ressurect. Newton can change gravity ray direction. I guess that's all if we're talking about abilities that have to be activated manually.
I think other bombers should also be able to fire instantly like Thunderbird. For Phoenix, this would be most important. On the other hand, Thunderbird could use Phoenix' force fire area animation.
