Imagine you play as a caldari AR user. But the map you play on has no cover anywhere near any of the objectives. Infact there is only 1 wall to hide behind and it is way over at the back of the map.. The map is all completely flat open ground, not a bump or a wall anywhere. On this map are 3 enemy snipers on a hill. This hill lets them see you at all times. This hill is also deep in the redline. So deep that no-one can get to them, even with a suicide run.
Also on this map are other players in Amarr suits. You are the only Caldari player. But the snipers are not interested in the Amarr players. They are smaller and harder to see and have small walls that your caldari suit cannot hide behind. So the 3 snipers only have you to look for the entire match.
These snipers can kill you in 2 shots, From 540 meters away and you have no cover and cannot move out of range as you are always in range. The playable area of the map is only 530 meters across.
This is what it is like for dropship pilots at the moment. No cover, no warning, no chance. If you want to play you have to step into his sights. The only defence is to hope he misses.
Perfect analogy for the railgun vs dropship situation in my opinion.
kind of long winded though.

For now the aerial red zone could be enlarged. It would allow ADS to at least fight these cowards. Also AV could then YOLO the problem. The reason they are back there is they want to be able to engage their targets with no chance of being hurt. Take that away and they will fit more tank less gank.
Buff AV. Its going to happen. Why wait? The skilled tankers will adapt and militia will be nerfed by natural selection. Drop ships could get a buff too.

It would make sense. The timer should only be triggered by vehicles that touch the ground. So long as the pilot and his crew stayed airborne, they wouldn't explode, and they'd be able to hunt red line rail gunners. They'd be the ultimate counter, in fact.
its almost like you read my mind.

trust me they are afraid of forges still.
