I get the feeling that those giant airships would be just a little bit useful vs grimm... or people in that case.. but really just get some miniguns on it.. a railgun or three... heat seaking targeting for those sneaky buggers that hide in forests... presumably some form of flak as well for nevermores and the like... this does of course raise questions about cost effectiveness and fuel efficiency, but I feel if cost were an issue Beacon wouldn't have flown everybody in one..plus they've got to be fast if Roman planned to use them to get away with all that dust... Hell we could probably replace hunters with this kind of tech.. of course this would lead to an arms race between competeing nations and the criminal underworld, but hell last I checked there are no grimm in labcoats plugging away at creating atomic bombs..Oh god this does raise the question of what war is like in this world... sure a small minority of the population are superhuman, but the majority of the population doesn't even have activated aura... Those that do are bound by limited supplies of dust and their own aura, so in any sustained combat hey would inevitably fall, especially in isolated schools like beacon.. It's a good thing I'm not in the rwbyverse because I'd probably be trying my hand at world domination right now.
