CF-105 ARROW vs Greater Manors

[norpan83]

It feels like the CF-105 ARROW is a bit weak, maybe it should be buffed a bit,
If you add a second cannon slot,
it would allow it to confidently attack the helicopters defending the greater manors.

This would give it some use in the Promotion 2 era,
if you have to wait until stingrays to use it, you are basically at MIG's anyway, so you don't need to use the arrow.

I suppose that if anything, the Arrow competes with the Little Bird, not the MiG.

I don't think I can change its stats any further without losing touch with what it is in reality, though.

I was puzzled by OP's suggestion that someone would consider using ARROW without STINGRAY missile launcher. But I suppose someone does.. and in that role I suppose it could be underwhelming.

In addition to dealing with the cults, missile-powered ARROW is also suitable for shooting down syndicate retaliation crafts (scarab and dragonfly) while LITTLE BIRD is too slow for them (not sure if it would have firepower anyway). So I suppose it's closer to MIGs at least with this respect.

Then what about alternative before-raider fly vehicle? :p

I heard ideas that Canadian goverment could rebrand CF-105 project into commercial jets, why not bring some retired people to help defeat the cult invasion?

I am not against it on principle, but I doubt we can squeeze one more transporter in there. It's already crowded as heck and IMO would feel like bloat.
