Usage in Battle
PK, as the first Light Vehicle avaliable, is a surprisingly formidable source of offense. Its main strengths are its ability to attack all targets while on the move, which allows it to fit in any platoon. While Heavy Vehicles like Rhinos take the burnt of fire, PKs can eliminate swarms of smaller targets and remain as the bulk of the platoon's offense. Able to target aerial units as well, they can even minimize damage dealt by defending Reapers or Cobras, and prove to be a more consistent alternative than the S-13 due to their low capacity.
However, PKs become obsolete quickly as players gain advanced units like the Humvee, Cobra and Abrams M1A1. PKs primarily suffer from their low range, health, and speed, meaning if the tanks aren't doing well, they have no means of defending themselves, and sometimes may fare worse than Riflemen or Machine Gunners. The Humvee, while not much stronger and unable to attack Fixed-Wing Aircraft with its primary, has the DPS, speed and health to be viable on their own. Even ignoring the Humvee, Abrams and Cobra are both much more capable in action, leaving PK without a proper place to shine.
