The team that has an active ADS that survives the round has almost always won, in all the games I've played of late.
I've had many games where the enemy team was winning until 5 people switched to AV and ambushed the other team's ADS. Once the ADS was gone my side suddenly started wiping the floor with the opposing team.
It takes about 3 people spread across the map focused on one ship to take out an average ADS user... 5 if the ADS is more proficient. They can heal outside of all gun range whenever they feel threatened, then come in to score 20+ kills by bobbing around at about building height, so that the AV can't target them inside the node as easily.
Tanks are quite frankly, useless against the proficient ADS users and only effective against average and poor users, due to the angle the guns point, and the speed and accuracy the ADS can sidestep with.
Basically, it's so easy to wipe the opponents with an ADS if lackluster AV is present, that people have learned to blow the ship out of the sky, or loose the match.
It's a learned response.

Missile and AV can lock-on/kill/destroy at the same range. The average ADS user won't get 20+ kills a game with AV on them. Stop exaggerating the situation...
Regular dropships drop like flies, I've had many a discussion with people who can't tell the difference between ADS and regular DS...

Regular dropships drop like flies, I've had many a discussion with people who can't tell the difference between ADS and regular DS... I assume you're not a pilot yourself and have no first hand experience... and where did "who can't tell the difference between ADS and regular DS..." come from?
Many of them were ingame, claiming ADS were acceptable because they pointed at a STD dropship that just blew up. Ingame it's easier to correct because I can tell them, "that was a Standard dropship". I had to remind them, that generally, if it doesn't have a forward gun, it's not an ADS. Not to mention there are those, of whom I cannot assist due to lack of local reference, who argue on the forums for ADS but don't really understand the difference in utility to STD, and just see some ships flying about, but aren't particularly bothered by them because they don't play the objectives, or for the objectives, in Dom and Skirm.
