Description

The Hacksaw's twin missiles brutally punish any aircraft that enters their range, but take a considerable amount of time to reload, making them less than ideal against light targets.

Tactics and Strategy[edit]

The best attribute of the hacksaw is being cheap, allowing it to be quickly deployed in areas where enemy bombers have started to harass your forces. However, beware of the fact that they can be easily baited into wasting their shots by cheap fliers.

If you want cost-effective AA coverage over a large area, however, the Hacksaw isn't what you're looking for.
