They can upgrade to buy Flakk Missiles in addition to Frags and Kraks, making them good against everything except Terminators.
Will this upgrade be expensive or viable?
The other issue is who wants to field Havocs when there are other options in the
HS section like Helldrake, Oblits, and Fiends?
I think one squad of havocs manning an
ADL with the extra guy on a quad gun will become commonplace. Granted you probably won't see three squads of havocs very often, but you could field 3 squads of them and 3 dragons. Wound be quite awesome anti-air and the dragons provide nice anti-troop as well.
With the costs on everything going down even with skyfire the havocs will be cheaper than they were in the old codex. I think the marines went down 2 points each, and the missile upgrade was cut in half.
