Not necessarily for every aspect of the game. Banshees for example suffer quite heavily in my opinion from the dominant Swift. Slower gunships are often escorted by Tridents or Rapiers for AA support, but the whole point of Banshees is to be fast and raidery. You either don't make them at all or you use them on their own without dragging slow AA gunships with them. Currently Banshees are a very risky investment because players will often have some Swifts anyway (there's very little reason to not have a few Swifts) potentially blindcountering those Banshees. Hawks on the other hand are much more softcountery due to their inability to near instantly catch the Banshees anywhere on the map.

The
way
I
see
it,
there
are
a
large
number
of
situations
in
which
the
Swift
is
much
better
than
the
Hawk
and
a
very
small
number
of
situations
in
which
the
Hawk
is
slightly
preferrable.
I
think
this
imbalance
has
a
bad
effect
on
gunship
unit
variety
(
specifically
the
Banshee)
and
it
seems
like
it
would
be
a
good
idea
to
either
nerf
the
Swift
or
in
some
way
improve
the
Hawk.
