A lot can depend on how well your opponent can counteract it. Being an AV12 flyer, it can be very durable, and even makes hover mode a viable option when needed. I'm a GK player, and I always set mine up as a "Dakkaraven" with hurricane bolters, TL heavy bolters, and TL assault cannon (the psybolt ammo buffs the strength on all of those, making it very deadly to vehicles and infantry alike). I forget what kind of missiles the BA version has (GK basically has frag missiles). The key to using any flyer is that you have to plan your movement at least one turn in advance. Look at where you, and where you go, and try to always maximize your target options along your potential flight paths.
