1 A slower Likho is an interesting idea. I have thought it was weird that Raven is slower, given their intended roles. But overall I think planes are doing pretty well. They don't dominate 1v1 and persist for quite a while in teamgames, without making the entire game hinge on the success of air. Likho and Thunderbird seem good. Phoenix is about as powerful as it can afford to be, if small units are to exist, although it could certainly be easier to control. Raven probably has room to be a bit better as it isn't so good at sniping commanders anymore. I think we're in a better spot than when air was defined by Raven. 1 A slower Likho is an interesting idea. I have thought it was weird that Raven is slower, given their intended roles.

3 I want planes to behave like planes, and not just be an extra level of ground units that floats above the rest of the game. It makes things feel different and matches the level of simulation we're going for. So planes are always going to be pretty fast, and gunships reasonably fast too. AA is going to need more range than the average ground unit as a result. But there is space for a bit of tweaking. 3 I want planes to behave like planes, and not just be an extra level of ground units that floats above the rest of the game.

5 Things seem to be basically fine at the moment, and reaching somewhere better takes work. A lot of people could step up to it. But it takes more than a proposal. Most of the work is in testing, refinement, and keeping an eye on the result. The reasoning behind a set of numbers is more valuable than the numbers themselves. And I wouldn't want to do a large change at this point, because things seem basically fine. 5 Things seem to be basically fine at the moment, and reaching somewhere better takes work.
