"We shall strike like lighting!"

-A Barnes ready to takeoff

Tactical analysis

 * Dutiful dogfighter: Armed with four HMGs with armor-piercing tremor rounds. The Barnes can cut through even the most heavily-armoured enemy aircraft in moments, as its rounds also shakes and weakens its frame, while racks of high-explosive rockets below allows the craft to destroys clusters of infantry and light vehicles
 * Bugging out: Like most UCA aircrafts, Barnes have an autopilot mechanism that causes them to return to base immediately using an emergency afterburner. This lets the Barnes deftly retreat from dangerous situations or rearm its weapon as quickly as possible
 * Try shooting everywhere: But the Barnes HMGs can only target one aircraft at a time, and limited rounds means that they can be easily overwhelmed by cheaper and numerous aircrafts, and their bombs lacks the power to punch through heavier armor, meaning heavily armored anti-air vehicles are a threat, and being built from the airfield also means it suffers from limited ammunition storage for both rounds, requiring the pilot to return back to reload and unable to fight back until rearmed
 * As one: Experienced Barnes pilots are known to provide fellow Bucky pilots with whatever support they can, allowing Bucky pilots to focus entirely on ground attacks and allowing them to operate with greater efficiency. Alongside their plane getting retrofitted with heavier autocannons, which produces a larger tremor capable of stunning surrounding aircrafts, and earthshaker bombs, which produces localized earthquakes upon impact, but with the retrofitting being a complicated and expensive process means that only ace pilots have been gifted with these new and powerful weapons

Ace upgrade
Unit now buffs surround Bucky's. And replaces rockets with earthshaker bombs, which is more effective against structures, stuns surrounding units, and deals more damage to structures, and HMGs is replaced with autocannons, which deals more damage and debuffs surrounding targets speed and attack rate
