If this is modern warfare why don't foot soldiers have the ability to ( paint ) a target for the pilots to drop Laser guided bombs to targets? this would not only cut down on TK`s but it would be a cool feature
I'm not entierly sure that a pilot and a footsolider would be able to communicate effectively enough to make this worth while, either that or you'd have 20 targets all nicely lit up and the pilot wouldn't have a clue which one to aim for. Maybe the commander having this ability would work better, but he can already do this by ordering the pilot to attack a certain target I guess... maybe, maybe not.
well if the soldier on the ground ( painted ) the target the laser guided bomb would know where to go by its self. hence the name... laser guided bomb
which soldier would paint which target? IF all soldiers had the ability to paint the target and you had multiple people painting multiple targets the target would not know where to go. also If you get some noob or idiot who paints a friendly target you would get the TK.
A little more research into painting a target might be nice. I think it would only work if only one person in your squad could paint the target. perhaps designate that person somehow and the other person in your squad be a pilot. or copilot with the targeting.
just my thoughts

Well, as far as I can think up we could add this to the squad leaders bag of tricks. As of now they can call down artillery from the commander and how they do it is somewhat painting targets but... Having a laser designator for squad leaders that link up to all the fly boys would be cool... The trick is getting them to go to your target.
Won't this be calling/requesting arti by the Squad Leader? For me, I would rather have the ability to call arti by the cursor point (or bino). Right now, the arti called by the Squad Leader is like 'Arti here!' which is where I am at!!! Not good for the health. LOL.
