check out this picture:
http://img529.imageshack.us/img529/7820/wallus6.png

what's that soviet plane on the left? I don't think it exists in the game.
Also, what's that tank on the right? It's not a Stingray...
Also look at the cannon on the right, it's a flak cannon right? But why is it pointing that way? it's only anti air, seems to me that that flak cannon is anti ground in that picture.

lastly, can you imagine if Cryocopter can attack air? I mean, technically it shouldn't be hard at all, just aim upwards a bit.
the freeze beam can totally pwn any aircraft in seconds, none of the planes can fly with its propeller or jet engine frozen, they will simply drop to the ground and crash. They can also freeze super heavy metal tanks, and the last time I checked, humans should probably die when they are frozen...
it's for the gameplay, so what ever.

The plane looks similar to the badger bomber that natasha calls in for an airstrike, the tank is a tesla tank which is camapign spacific and the gun?

Well it doesn't matter about that.

The Soviet aircraft is called the, "Badger". It visible in the Soviet mission set in a circus.

The tank is called the Tesla tank, and is shown in the Soviet mission set in Easter island.


EDIT: Here a is a link to a larger version of the image of the, "Badger".

oooooh, that's the so called "Badger".

I always wondered why Allied now had Century Bomber, "carpet bombing", "Paratroopers". Well the Badger in RA1 did what Century Bomber does now.

The plane is called the Badger Bomber. The other one is the Tesla Tank only found in the last 2 soviet missions.

Because the Stingray kinda makes the Tesla Tank redundant.

No, because the devs couldn't find a place on the tech tree to fit a tank that had godlike effectiveness against both vehicles and infantry.

Stuff like that screws up the counter system.

That too. But also because the stingray on land is approximately* equal to the Tesla Tank.







*this is EXTREME approximation. They are nowhere near equal, AT ALL. But the concept is almost the same.

Make the Apocalypse amphibious and able to fly. Then give it autoloading cannons and twin chainguns, plus rocket pods and afterburners for extreme airspeed. Then give it a tertiary ability which allows it to drop mini-vacuum bombs that leave a residual Desolator Toxin field. And give it a repair radius that heals infantry and fixes aircraft, vehicles and itself. Yea... I can see it now.....
