That Atlantis need better AA, something like gatling gun shooting SAM missiles to be balanced

Atlantis is kind of okay-ish. But is pretty lacklustre as a T4 unit. It's primary strength in the manner of it's attack is the ability to suddenly surface near a target and offload a wing of strike aircraft. As such, the Atlantis is not so much a damage dealer but an enabler and support unit.

The unit does have a number of deficiencies when performing this task. Which are that it is too easily detected with sonar, and is very slow. These could be fixed by:

1. Increasing Atlantis underwater cruise speed.
2. Giving the Atlantis sonar stealth.

Other possible considerations might be an armament modification, such as:

3. Twin Riot guns (direct fire weapon when surfaced - exactly like the Fatboy secondary weapons) which operate when surfaced. To give it some self defence against hover.
4. A secondary flak AA cannon to and some extra AoE damage.

Another useful idea (but I'm not sure how easy it is to implement) is to have the Atlantis come complete with it's own wing of aircraft, and have the cost of these aircraft added to the cost of the unit. Or perhaps, a persistent wing of combat drones which auto-deploy and assist the ship when surfaced. They would be targetable, and replenished in exactly the same manner as engineering station drones.

Digested solid organic matter residue posting aside, the Atlantis isn't that strong, torps are ok-ish but anything that can groundfire will kill it immediately, plus it has to surface to launch/take planes adding to the vulnerability.

Only thing I'd change is a buff to the AA and the submarine-get-stealth thing.
This way you can sneak it with some frigates and pop right as enemy planes are in the area, shredding them with AA and launching ASFs

If it is a flying unit then it needs something kind of air to ground cannons like what the UEF T3 Transport has, except instead of exactly what the UEF T3 Transport has, give it 4 of the percival cannons and give it the same rate of fire as the cannons from the UEF transport! Problem solved! Also some anti air cannons in the form of the fatboy artillery cannons, only they track like regular projectiles but still maintain their spread. Only then will this derp post truely see balancing of the UEF!
