What's funny is if you check the code, normal hornets have better damage ratios. But when they vet their damage doubles but several of their ratios drop because their warhead changes meaning their damage doesnt really increase vs heavier armors even though their light armor damage stays at 100%

[@Weigazod]

Which means they don't improve at all because light targets usually don't have a lot of health so the increased damage is wasted through overkills.

[@schwarzerritter5724]

I was hoping you ended this with the dreadnought and carrier fighting each other directly.

[@r1_anon]

If there are a million anti-air weapons, carrier could destroy the target, but dreadnought cannot.

[@TheRogueminator]

Huh

[@borisglevrk]

Not really. carrier aircraft are still kinda weak. Basically carrier wins in range and ability to hit moving target, while dreadnaught wins at firepower, AA penetration and splash.

[@borisglevrk]

1:33 literally shows hornet has better survivability against aa...

[@LordEmperorHyperion]

Gattling Gun: "Annoying mosquito, *shoots millions of bullets at hornets, drops like flies*"

[@squishymusic9723]

The hornets can still get shots off thanks to the missiles range, which combined with better accuracy against moving targets gives them value

[@miceruitomi]

Don't forget that Hornets are also count as casualties in the Custome or Multiplayer.

[@mikemandalorian9226]

Literally means nothing xD

[@TheRogueminator]

I love the aircraft carrier, but hornets are simply too easy to shoot down

[@1LERS1]

V2 rockets too.

[@felixleong61]

Meanwhile in Ra3, it's the direct opposite lol. The Sky Knights are REALLY hard to shoot down

[@unknown0soldier]

SO basically the dreadnought is weaker against AA, but beats the carrier in all other aspects. BTW, it's funny that soviet flak is more effective against the soviets than the allies

[@trololoev]

Carrier has bigger range

[@Dembilaja]

Carrier can also fight other ships effectively. Dreadnought cannot augment trajectory of its missiles, meaning if target moves moment after launch, it could easily evade them. On the other hand hornets constantly track moving targets while unleashing their load

[@johnm3907]

The dreadnought gains promotions though. The individual planes get it but they get shot down.

[@Misterjuzz]

@@johnm3907 the hornets i think take an extra hit when promoted and deal a bit more damage. carriers are better when you put in the effort IMO. Dreadnaughts are great though against lazy players or an army trickling in (kirovs are too in this regard).

[@WolfrexGrrog]

Интересно, какова ситуация при повышении уровня, шершни индивидуально получают повышение или же сам авианосец? Я уже не помню, давно играл. И, на сколько я помню, авианосец способен поразить цель на более дальней дистанции

[@arrowghost]

My easy answer is always dreadnought, you have nothing to lose with missiles whereas hornets are easily shot down. That's why I love to play as brute force Soviets

[@borisglevrk]

Hornets respawn much slower than missiles too, and an empty carrier is a $2000 cruise ship that can't even defend itself.

[@thetvversiontwo9318]

​@@borisglevrkbasically what people call as the floating ducks.

[@ungmuisu1761]

Số stop crying 1 year old kid 😁

[@ZMhlg]

The damage spill of the missile ship is still too seriousIn even after upgrade to3, the single-shot damage is higher than the nuclear bomb

[@Skyblade12]

Thanks for reminding me why I never use Aircraft Carriers.

[@hakanerci4372]

I think carrier better than dreadnought about yuri's gatling tower. But I like dreadnought . 30 dreadnought become scud storm :)

[@benyaminbukier1204]

Like the part of giving the carrier the attack order again, like: "Are airplanes finally respawned or not!?!" 😂

[@nicoloalfonsodizon]

I play alot of Ra2 and to be honest if i were to pick a bombardment ship to like use in a large group i would pick the dreadnaught but if im trying to save as much money as possible while still being effective in smaller numbers i would pick the Aircraft carrier, Sure air craft carriers can still attack anti air while dreadnaughts has almost no chance hitting it alone but thats just he quirks of Air units compared to missle, its not like the missles of the V4 rocket in Ra3 when you can just launch a rocket and no one will ever hit it. Air craft on the other hand especially with guided missles can just Hit their targets before getting shot down. So its simply Aircraft carrier wins in small number battle and Dreadnaught wins in large Number battle.

[@hector_campus]

Hornets are more dangeours, even you take down, can destroy easy buildings when they crash.

[@drunkenqueen3077]

I love RA2 logic. A harrier carries one bomb. A tiny hornet can carry so many bombs.

[@AdmiralBlackstar]

Pair up a pair of Dreadnoughts and the AA weakness disappears in my experience. Carriers on the other hand have to wait for their planes to come back or respawn first, which also makes them less suitable for when you're doing a deep strike into enemy territory rather than chip away at their AA first.

[@Niekieboyz]

You should also factor in moving targets.

[@songsong5494]

I always find dreadnought doesn't worth that 2000 comparing to aircraft carrier. It is especially useless against moving targets.

[@patrickjonathanphan3483]

Dreadnaughts have longer range and in online games will wreak way more havoc alone than a lone carrier could.

[@KarlKognitiv]

Dreadnaughts* aren't* worth the* 2000, compared* to

@@KarlKognitiv Oh ok. It's just the way you typed them seemed like you were mocking or something But yeah, in that case, thanks for spreading knowledge! God bless :)

[@0Atche0]

vet dreadnaught shoots literal nukes that splash even in the air and kill most things, you never are gonna send just 1 ship and when its multiple rockets, the dreadnaught is just better

[@whyareugae3372]

shit. thats why my rocketeers just randomly died in the air against dreadnought

[@whyareugae3372]

so thats why my rocketeers just randomly died in the air

[@rollerepic2107]

AC is slightly better than DN on penetrating heavy-defended bases, but DN's efficiency is way better. Also, DN's threat to an allied base is far bigger than AC's threat to a soviet base, as a consequence of allied's broken anti-air weapons

[@odakidakida9193]

Dreadnought is better on artillery power, but Aircraft Carrier can engage enemy units better

[@berkinburduroglu2406]

AC is good for hit and run tactics

[@givemeascreamx]

what about dreadnought vs carrier??

[@eleantor7892]

Without micro - drednought With micro - carrier

[@trevynlane8094]

Dreadnought has higher rate of fire and more powerful hits, but can't hit moving targets. Carrier has better accuracy and is able to move after "shooting." The battle will go to the Dreadnought if the AI does it, but a human player can win with the carrier using micro (not how it would go IRL, by the way).

[@DC-bd6pe]

You're telling that the carriers are only good at destroying things that are only meant to destroy them? Geez

[@Luxai]

2:30 for all you who said flak performs best vs swarms...

[@chavicly]

For single, may be not. But for cluster of flaks surely be better.

[@Luxai]

@@chavicly Yeah but when are you actually gonna see clusters as large as these videos like to use?
