So to make it clearer, you want the following..
- Reduced Railgun damage
- Reduced Railgun range
- Reduced Railgun rate of fire
- Reduced price of Assault Dropships
- Increased PG for the Python and Incubus
- Reduced Railgun Installation range
- Reduced Railgun turret elevation
- Increased Shield Resistance against Railguns
- Increased Python acceleration
- Increased passive regen for light vehicles (And I'm guessing give light vehicles bonuses to their armor reppers?)
Most of these are appropriate I think, though I do have some thoughts. Look to tweaking different things one at a time, and consider the other vehicles affected, a Railgun is an effective AT weapon, so reducing its damage would make it worse than using something like Missiles. So rather than lowering DPS for a Railgun, a reduction to elevation may actually solve many issues Dropships are facing, ofcourse there's always the problem that a tank will find a hill so it can aim upwards, but that can be worked on.
Seriously, ADS prices are that high? That is ******* ridiculous and needs a fix right away, If a tank hull costs under 100k, the Dropships need to be around that price also.
I don't feel it necessary to nerf railgun installations to the extent you're proposing, however, if your complaint is due to the fact that the A.I fires at you from that distance (I know the feeling, every other vehicle has this problem) then rather than nerf the installation and making them ineffective against vehicles again (though Dropships have always had a problem with them), nerf the A.I targeting range, if you get close to them, that's your fault but nobody deserves to be shot out of the sky randomly by an A.I installation.
On the regen, can we safely buff it without affecting AV? If so, then fully support, light vehicles and dropships need additional perks to be used, if the LAV had an even higher regen, perhaps double a Gunnlogi (Gunnlogi has around 160 on shield regen) then I could see it being used a lot more. Same with the Dropship, though I haven't flown this build due to lack of a controller, so that's down to all the pilots this build to discuss further.

Buffing or Debuffing Vehicles or AV will never fix anything.
