And if it is so imba, then scout itself wouldnt have such onboard weapon.
And also it will be available for LT and helli too. But it will be best with scout.
Bombarding Rockets are no match, rather a disadvantage, since you fall back in terms of farming even more than you would against a Scout anyway. As mentioned by TKF, the sniper-cannon is not imba. Scout's fine the way it is right now, definitely not too weak, why make it even stronger?
The new weapon would practically not be available to the other starting tanks right away, they'd be almost completely unable to do something against the farming machine Scout, they almost couldn't kill it (Defensive Systems), they couldn't destroy the Watch Tower, and they would farm worse than Scout, so they're fucked sooner or later. Of course I'm exaggerating a little, but that illustrates why Scout, in my opinion, cannot be given a starting weapon that helps it farm (after it's farming abilities have been nerfed) and gives it an advantage in range, protecting it from enemies.
