Battlefield 2142/BTR-20 Yastreb
From EncyClanPedia
Air transports are a essential component of all Titan maps. They serve as troop transport, mobile spawnpoints and are often the only way of boarding enemy titans.
There are several tall building whose roofs can only be accessed by aircraft or Titan drop-pod.
The Transport in itself is quite solid and has shields (default "x"), but only the pilot has any significant protection. The gunners and passengers are exposed to the open, and can be taken out if the transport lands in a hotzone.
It is important to learn to fly the Transport in single player game before attempting it online. A crash can often kill an entire squad, and taking of with a empty Transport is no guarantee since it is a mobile spawnpoint.
Once basic flight has been mastered, it is possible to do quite accurate landings with the transport, e.g. within capping range of a Silo or on a Titans landing deck.
Players attempting to land on Titans should take note to never fly above the Titan, since its powerful AA guns will make short work of a Transport.
Weapons
Miniguns
The transport pilot has no weapons at his disposal, but the Transport is armed with two individually controlled miniguns. These guns also have a zoom function which allows more accurate firesupport. The Guns are primarily anti infantry weapons, but can also be used against other aircrafts.
Passenger weapons
The remaning passengers of the transport has full use of their weapons. this allows them to make inflight repair, drop mines or maybe fire SAAWs at enemy aircrafts.
