Assault Strike Package, or Garbage?

Ask yourself, what name sounds more fitting: Assault Strike Package, or Assault Strike Garbage. First things first, assault UAV's along with support UAV's there is constant UAV spam, which gets extremely annoying even though I use Assassin anyway! Anyway lets get on to the big streaks and why they are garbage. ATTACK HELICOPTER: The attack helicopter is typically shot down with 5-10 seconds on entering the air space and provides you with about 0 kills. Rarely does the opposing team not have a guy who carries around a stinger to drop these out of the sky before the helicopter even gets started. An easy fix? Return the Harrier Airstrike to us, it was amazing! AC-130: The lesser to the Pave Low currently, the AC-130 is pretty bad, it can be good at times, but its no contest its equivilent, the Pave Low will be giving you a good burst of constant kills usually getting you about 6-9 kills before the pavelow leaves, and the pavelow you dont even have to leave yourself vulnerable! The AC-130 at very good times can get 6-9 kills, but with how the maps are on this game (terrible) it usually obtains you about 3-4 kills. OSPREY GUNNER: Our new replacement to the Chopper Gunner, the Osprey as well as being a gunship, blesses your team with 4 random care packages. Now my problem is, assault isnt support, its not about helping your team.. so why would I give my team 4 care packages while im sitting in my gunner?! The 4 care packages is the sole reason the killstreak went up from 13 to 17, which is completely stupid because we benefit ZERO from thoes 4 packages that your teamates always steal by the time your out of the gunner!' On another note, the old chopper gunners were more powerful and werent shot down near as easy! The Osprey gunner is shot down almost as fast as the attack helicopter, I mean even the Pave Low lasts longer that this rendered useless killstreak! Infinity Ward has a lot of work to do, in my opinion MW2 has been the all time best game, although I liked some of blackops killstreaks that I would love to see in MW's like the Attack Dogs.
I agree with you but when i call in pavelows they usually get shot down before i get any kills so i think the whole thing needs to be fixed

Half of people complain that are too many killstreaks the other half complain that are useless.
I notice that the killstreaks in MW3 are not that powerful as previous games, which for me is good because I am more gun-on-gun type.
For me, there are alright.
Welcome the more "gun-on-game" game that IW promised us.
Running Repear/AC-130/Osprey easily turns a 9 killstreak into a 25. And I'm all about the win, so if I can help my lesser teammates by throwing 4 CP's at them, that's OK with me.
The killstreaks do the right amount of damage overall to me. However, a lot of the higher rewards are completely pointless. Pave Low is useless as it ges shot down instantly. The AC130 is marginally better, but people often camp inside to avoid it. As for Assault Juggernaut, there is no point whatsoever in running it. The Osprey is actually powerful enough in my opinion.
