Air Superiority

Air Superioritymode's first and only appearance up to date is in Battlefield 1943. At the release of the game the mode was locked until the community gets 43 million kills on each console. The mode was unlocked on both platforms within a week and a half, but recieved mixed reception mainly because of the gameplay issues and lack of maps.

Objective
The only objective in the Air Superiority mode is to eliminate the enemy aircraft and secure the air above the map. In order to take the control of the air the team must have more players in the air than the opposite team. leaving the aircraft carrier or the plane once your away from the carrier results in death within 9 seconds.

Issues
The mode recieved mixed reception mainly because of gameplay issues(uneven spawning on the two carriers leaving one mostly empty), limits which make the mode restricted compared to other modes and lack of maps.
