Really? It's slow so has a very poor reaction time if the TiC is far away, has to carry many different types of weapon to deliver the same effect as GR4 does with 2 weapon types and therefore can only carry a very limited number of them. GR4 can carry 3 x Paveway 4 programmable high-collateral bombs, 3 low-collateral DMS Brimstone missiles and the gun is very accurate and low-collateral, is much faster and has 2 crew so far easier to manage radios/9-lines/RoE etc.
On the plus side, it has a justifiably proud service history and they carry sat phones.
The gun is good, as long as there are no friendlies nearby.
