[QUOTE="jrwlynch, post: 4019034, member: 19576"] 4.5" had a respectable AA capability - Avenger had a credible claim of downing an A-4C Skyhawk in 1982 using hers - until it was deleted in 2000 or thereabouts. It was the usual problem of poor understanding, though: "a MR gun doesn't have a huge chance of shooting down a fast jet, let alone a missile, so therefore it must be useless so let's take the capability away." The more correct reasoning is "MR gunfire appears to have had a significant deterrence and distraction effect on fast jets, and is a very effective option against the irregular air threat, so can we keep air mode?"
