Well, I was just sitting here seeing if I could sign in, and a screen came up with all the little indicators that pop on your mini map. Before the screen went away, I noticed three different triangles that said Light Aircraft, Medium Aircraft, and Heavy Aircraft.
Preparation for Gunships and Fighters maybe? |

Hopefully but we need some real AA before Gunships are added after all gunships are effectivly anti tank/firesupport so they will masacare everyone if they have air superiority so full on AA or as someone suggested area denial AA would be required first, but good info you found |

DUST Fiend is right, there is really any helping screen with different map icons. I saw it too. Only if I would have photographic memory I would tell you more. |

Would be pretty sick to have something like an AC-130 with an array of armament.
One large weapon and two small.
Four small weapons.
Make it like a flying marauder that's sole design is for ground support. |

Light aircraft could be the RD
Medium would be the lowest type of dropships
Heavy would be the prometheus. |

Just saw this loading screen bumper. I will confirm.
Shows various weapon emplacements, command modules and vehicle types including: 3 levels of Missile Placements, Aircraft and Vehicles (possibly the armored ground transport I've dreamed of between cars and tanks) as well as their related on-map symbols. i.e.. the diamonds, triangles, squares, etc you see when looking at your map in combat.
I'm only editing because I keep seeing it and trying to get it all up and have a crummy memory... |

I would argue that the large blasters are already great AA, they can easily kill any merc on the battlefield in 1 shot, so I think they would make perfect anti gunship weaponry |

Last night i had a dream where i was flying a small rifter looking ship on dust it shot guns out the front like an old P-51 and was incredibly quick and maneuverable. Was very fun to fly up and down strafing the enemy. |

MPA (Multi Purpose Aircraft)

Keep in mind that Dropships, RDVs, and MCCs fit into those categories, too.
Don't take it as a promise that new aircraft are being worked on right now. CCP just had the forthought to make categories with generic names for future expansion. |
