Im against such fighters due to the same reasons as jonquill. It would be good if they introduce more aircrafts but they should be more helicopter-like. a mode like you want it could be in the space before the battle on the planet. That your fleet defenses/attacks the mcc in a spacefight.

and not all aircraft should be helicopter like imo
dropships already fill that roll

1. Controls
Firstly, this craft will need to have two modes for the VTOL to work.
Second, current controls won't work for both modes.
I suggest that the radial module menu should be selected with the D-pad for control purposes.
Hover -
Dropship controls, but the vehicle remains mostly flat like the RDV flies. Weapons will be handled in their proper section. Small turrets angle their central points down 5 extra degrees compared to Flight mode, to optimize for hover combat.
Flight -
Lift/lower controls are now your throttle, with no input being 50% thrust. There can be two implementations of flight.
>Arcade : Left stick turns (combo roll/rudder) and controls pitch. Right stick aims turrets within the FoV. This is similar to the "arcade" variant of Starhawk's scheme.
>Sim : Left stick is roll/pitch. Right stick vectors thrusters, enacting yaw and up/down "sliding". In this scenario, the guns auto-track the closest enemy in the center of FoV, but are more limited than the "arcade" option for balancing.

can some one from CCP comform if any of the things mentioned are true and especially wether fighters will come and when we can expect non barren type battle feilds

The Jet could have 2 fix mounted miniguns in his nose, which can just fire straight ahead and are controlled by the pilot and 2 slots for weapons, one light under its wings and a heavy on its bottom. Both slots are controlled by the copilot who has to change the weapons.

@eryx : I'd be all for the swarm idea normally, but Starhawk beat us to it, and its predecessor had them years ago!
I'm overly cautious when using ideas similar to recent games, especially signature weapons and vehicles.

I imagine a system like this:
There are jets, gunships and helicopter like attackships.

The jets have 2 fix mounted miniguns in their nose fired by the pilot and a slot for light weapons under their wings and one for hevy weapons on their bottom which both are controlled by a copilot who has to change the weapons. They are runway based.

The gunships are like an AC-130 and have one light weapon hardpoint under each of their wings which are controlled by a pilot and a heavy and two light hardpoints on one side of the hull which are just restricted moveable and fired all together by the copilot. They have about 10 seats to carry some paratrooper like mercs. Of course they are very expensive (1,5 mio +), are rarely manouverable and have a very weak armor to compensate their hevy firepower. They are also runway based.

The attackships are small, agile and have a moderate armor and arming. Their propulsion is like that of the dropships. They have also two seats for a pilot who controlles a light weapon on each side of the hull and a gunner who fires a light gun on its top which can shoot everywhere over it and about 30 degrees down.

This system would need different types of guns.

The first spawnpoint of the attackers is on a changed MCC which has a hangar and a runway. On this MCC all vehicles are manufactured and brought to a platform like on aircraft carriers where they are picked up by RDVs that bring them down. If you order a vehicle on the MCC it doesnt get picked up by RDVs but stay on its platform. The only way to start jets and gunships is on the runway on the MCC or if they are introduced on a aircraft carrier. so you cannot order them on the ground. There are also auto guns on the MCC to prevent enemies from flying onto the MCC.
The defenders non overtakeable spawnpoint is a hangar too which is under planets surface. The other things are the same.

There are threads that talk about different options like:
Hover tanks
APC's
MTACS
Mechs
Gunships
Fighters
Supply Vehicles
Motorcycles
Heavy lift Dropships (for carrying HAV's and such)

If the above is a mistake on my part, please no militia jets. Expensive (like other vehicles) jets sound good, I figure the skill tree would be branched off of dropship. "(enter race here) fighter" skill should require "(enter race here) dropship" IV as a prerequisite, like "(enter race here) cruiser" needs "(enter race here) frigate" IV.

Fighter designs are already in EVE (if you look closely, you can even see lil people in them). They could just adapt those designs to DUST. Here are the bombers.

If fighters are in the game, there really should be fighter bombers. Also, the maps right now may not be big enough for fighters, but they are planning on increasing the map size so that the largest maps will be 25km^2.
