I have found that it works well against massed troops like Tyranids and Ork Mobs...and if you use a squadron (3) and fire as a barrage, then it's even more effective. Of course the draw backs under the present rules is that each vehicle uses a heavy choice on the FOC so you need to have a rather large force in order to field them as a complete squadron...and of course they tend to become the object of repeated heavy weapons fire...so getting them behind cover is of course essential to their success, as well as ensuring there is adequate support in the way of troops to keep them safe.
