Anyone know if they gave Chun Li a proper Anti-Air move in SSF4?

EDIT: Ex Spinning Bird can only be used so often. While Dragon punches and flash kicks are spammable
Has she ever had a proper (i.e. an all-purpose or "spammable") anti-air? Even her up kicks from ST were only really good in a combo, since they had little invulnerabilities meaning they could easily be interrupted by something like a crouching medium kick. She does have some semi-decent normals for that job, though: her standing roundhouse and fierce can be really good depending on the matchup.

Besides, the flash kick is an outright crappy move in SF4 land. It can be stuffed since it has no invulnerabilities and the EX version of it is only slightly better in that regard. Having to waste 3 stocks of super bar for a safe version of a move means there are few instances where you can use it and even fewer instances where using it is wise. Funnily, I think SF4 Guile's standing medium kick and crouching fierce are far better anti-airs than the special move that was originally designed to be one. YMMV, of course.

'Capcom won't be milking the Street Fighter IV franchise any further.'

Yeah. And I am Spartacus.
