Shooter

There shouldn't be a single aircraft that costs over 40-50k when aircraft are limited to guns only. It's too easy to be shot out/shot down. Anyone with a 7.62+ caliber LMG can easily bring down an aircraft.

There's no point in purchasing any of the armed helicopters currently on the server. Guns alone are garbage. It's so easy to disable/shoot down a heli or kill the pilot while doing a gun run that by removing ALL rockets from helicopters you have essentially just removed the point of purchasing any armed helicopter.

Rockets on helis are op? Machine guns or AA missiles vs a heli with only guns is op. You can disable a helis engine/rotor with less than 10 rounds from a high caliber machine gun and know how to play against a heli you can maneuver around on the ground and essentially make it impossible for the heli to shoot you with guns only.

I completed a mission on Altis and got a Humvee yesterday and drove 6km across the map with 2 helicopters strafing me and they didn't even damage my vehicle. At this point helicopters are completely useless aside from transportation.

Instead of removing rockets altogether the smart move would have been to increase the re-arm price.

I can understand that many servers don't want to go "militarized" because they don't want it to just become guided missile warfare, but a lot of the helicopters that are currently on the server could still be very balanced if their "dumb-fire/unguided" rocket pods were enabled. As it stands right now most of the helicopters are very lackluster. For example, the UH-1H "XM16" and UH-1H "XM21" have rocket pods that hold 14 hydra rockets before needing to be re-armed. That is far less armament than most of the light armored vehicles currently on the server (Marid, GMG vehicles) who hold several hundred rounds of explosive ammo. Helicopters are actually at a huge disadvantage right now in terms of fighting ability because simply strafing a target with guns is very ineffective and it is extremely easy to shoot them down with AA missiles, shooting the pilot out of his seat, or simply disabling the helicopter with machine gun fire. Yes, most of the helicopters have flares to counter AA, but they don't always work as intended. 

I believe enabling unguided rocket pods on helicopters and possibly increasing the price of said helicopters would compliment the current set of light armored vehicles that are currently available for purchase on the server without going overboard on the militarized warfare.

On a side note - having helis available for purchase that have rocket pods on them without actually being able to use the rockets is a huge bait. I just recently started playing on <SG> servers and have wasted more money than I'd like to admit purchasing each one of the helis with rocket pods and then finding out the rockets aren't functional. I tried asking about the rockets in-game and in Discord prior to purchasing some of them, but never got a reply.
