Take the Python for example.
You get a great bonus for small missile turrets, to the point that you can rain down hell on just about anyone or anything. If you get targeted by a FG, you can fly high enough to get away especially if you put on a speed mod. The thing that sucks is that any red dot and call in a Militia drop ship and crash into you and you both get destroyed, unless they happen to call in a Gorgon. Then the red dot survives with some hp left and land then either recalls his or just lets in blow up.
Now in all reality shouldn't it take alot more then a Militia drop ship that crashes into you to destroy you? I think it should do some damage to it but not to the point of destruction. After all your flying an Assault Drop Ship, so should it not have the ability to survive a militia drop ship just crashing into it?

Your 500k ADS that you've invested millions of SP should not be able to be taken down with just a tap by a MLT DS that absolutely ANYONE can get with ease. This topic needs to be overviewed by CCP because it really is ridiculous!
So you agree that JLAVS should not not be possible to use?

That's different true, first you have to rig the JLAV so there is time to spot. Second you can shoot the front of the lav causing it to explode instantly, pythons are bad at air to air because missiles are very unreliable so even if your hitting the dropship you have to land 2-3 clips to down him before he touches you. Third, with the JLAV you have to have some speed to actually cause the detonation and destroy the tank, you can't just lightly tap it and cause it to explode, which is the case for suicide dropships. JLAVing and suicide dropshipping are two completely separate things, one requires skill, the other doesn't.
Neither requires skill and it ends the same way.

In reality, two Aircrafts colliding with each-other would cause them both to crash, in-turn killing everyone inside and maybe even some bystanders nearby. Let's not go there. Also, how are you having problems with MLT Dropships? They're super slow and appear on the TACNET a few seconds before impact, allowing you to escape with ease, then shoot them down if your aim's good enough.
I dunno dude I can get those things moving pretty fast in a death dive.
