GRN vhf is outturned by council bomber. um, what?!
in all of the combat i have witnessed, the Basilisk outturns the GRN vhf by about 10%. Can we up the turn on the vhf at least a little? as is its got about the manuverability as a Roc bomber.

The Lynx is a heavy VHF. It has armour and a powerplant that far surpasses any other fighter in Gallia. The Basilisk, on the other hand, is a light Bomber, used in hit and run attacks.
GRN fighter pilots have a choice. Either use the more agile Serval, or the heavily armoured and powerful Lynx. I don't see a problem.

Waiiit... you dont see a problem with a BOMBER outturning a fighter. um... what? and for the record, the HF is a brick as well.

Issue: SNAC can hit at 3k if the situation is right.. Solaris turrets have half that range on the big ships.
Interm solution: Increase max solaris range, but lower speed, at least on the BS.

Solaris turrets are not the only Battleship turrets out there.
Pretty much every battleship turret type except for Solaris and Secondaries have around 3K range, or more.
Also Battleship Missiles.

1- Cruiser/BS Torpedos are very easily evaded/outran
2- Guns other than solaris are easily evaded, especily at range.

BS can strafe/evade SN shots
Small BS can do this to shots fired from 800meters
Medium (Bret + Ln Dread) something like 1k
The biggest heavy ones (Zoner Jug. RH BS) at some 1.8k

Not easily however.
Plus according to the stats on the wiki BS Solaris has 1,099m range.
A bomber at thrust can cross that 200 meters and get inside the no-evasive-possible limit very fast
The biggest ones a bomber can fire nearly 1k outside of Solaris range.
Admitedly BSs are SUPPOSED to be hard to evade with, but this gives bombers a massive advantage, since unless piloted poorley they are hard to hit. (based on experince even GB sized ships can evade a BS for a while in a skirmish)
