Re: Use of Guships
I mostly play in the modern era.
IMHO one or two strike elements of Hellfire UAVs are more cost effective that one SEAD strike. Their small size and high EW rating make them devilishly hard to hit with SAMs. I like to have them attack what are likely to be empty sections of the map on turn 0. Just try to avoid flying them over vehicle concentrations as they don’t last long around AA Mgs. I view these essentially as “SAM-bait” and the extra hellfire shot as a bonus.
I have also Mobhacked HE tow missiles onto the Apache to create a MANPADS sniper. Even Infantry SAMs with TI vision of 40 are overmatched by the 60 vision of the AH-64D.
