the 60" range is a nice advantage.

That outranges 90% of all weaponry you will encounter. Only Railguns, Battle Cannons, and a few other ordinance weapons can match that.

Str7 is very good at killing transports. the ability to do that from accross the board at potentially BS5 is pretty powerful.

Yeah, but the 60" range basically puts out the 'assault' out of assault cannon, fly around the edge of the board or hover and fire off missiles.
