Airforce Base 3, after 3-7:
NATO: B52(USA): RADAR ARMOR ENGINE FCS WEAPON INCENDIARY VS WTO: Tu22M(USSR): ENGINE FCS COATING ARMOR WEAPON HE-AMMO
Let's compare: 1. Ignore WEAPON, which they share. 2. Tu22M has better survivalability due to COATING and better ARMOR. 3. B52 has better base output because of FCS. 4. B52 has INCENDIARY, while Tu22M has HE-AMMO.
So we get the result: Tu22M definitely. Why? Isn't it wasteful using a bomber to bomb infantry?

Why? Isn't it wasteful using a bomber to bomb infantry? I have chosen the b52 with not really too much thoughts at that moment. I agree mostly with your arguments but i must say at aliens campaigns you will use the airforce mainly against basis so fcs is very nice imo... Moreover i think i picked the units mostly on march ability.. For airplanes this is important so maybe get this in the equation too? (Dunno if 1 is better)

True, FCS is great, Leopold2 and AMX56 could have similar output as ZTZ99 with the support of it. But HE-AMMO cannot be replaced easily by FCS, especially while Tu22M has FCS also.

Blue Dragon or Red Dragon?
I pick Blue Dragon as he has better Coating and Engine.
Did you all notice their art pics in the gift shop, hilarious.
