It should be noted that in comparison to the Soviet flak cannon emplacement, the flak trooper paled in range and damage, but this was compensated by being cheaper, mobile, independent on power supply and versatile in means of being able to engage a wide variety of targets, not just aerial units. The unit dealt similar splash damage against air units that are clustered close together, such as Allied Harrier jets en-route to a target. The trooper also has anti-aircraft capabilities, as their flak cannons allowed proximity shells to be shot high into the air. However, in order to avoid exhaustion from lugging around their heavy weapons, flak troopers were issued very light armour, and could be killed easily by enemy anti-infantry units. They have proved very effective in infantry firefights, as their flak cannons were highly destructive against infantry thanks to their added splash damage, an advantage that was made more lethal in regards to their surprisingly long range. The standard trooper carries a powerful portable flak cannon over his shoulder, with the added weight making them slower than the average conscript. The Flak Trooper attacks with explosive flak, allowing him to damage aircraft as well as seriously wound enemy infantry This advanced infantry unit is useful against both ground and air targets.
