378 [REPOI] Haku Member 1,643 posts 4,886 battles Report post #3 Posted December 13, 2015 Because cruisers need a perk that allows them to shoot longer distances from a very unnatural angle (for me anyway). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

245 [BRU] Mingfang47 Member 2,725 posts Report post #5 Posted December 14, 2015 Because balance. Everybody would choose spotter plane for longer range than catapult fighter for AA defense. Admit it, we all want to but spotter plane is available only for high tier cruisers. ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

9 BottleneckedGaming Member 189 posts 6,759 battles Report post #8 Posted December 14, 2015 So these are all my coonfusions after reading all your thoughts: -At which tier does USN cruisers get the scout plane? -I'm very happy with my Cleveland's accuracy even with GFCS upgraded and shoot as far as possible, so the scout won't reduce much accuracy, and why doesn't Wargaming add it?

Tier 9 for US and Japan. Don't know for Germany but I assume it's the same. 2. Because they are already strong as they are. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
34 [TROLL] UnasSinkerOfShips Member 406 posts 6,610 battles Report post #10 Posted December 15, 2015 I've actually stopped taking the Scout plane on all of my Ships - the Advantage of having a Fighter (Especially in My BBs to mess with incoming TB/DB attacks) is much more advantageous - the increased dispersion generally means I'm wasting my time.
