A level 3 or 4 party killing it only shows how screwed up Larians combat system is.

Is it supposed to be an adult red dragon? If so, it's kinda lame. This is how a red dragon should look like-

It is.
When you examine the dragon you see its statistics (also something that should not be possible) and they match the statistic of an adult red dragon exactly. Also it is huge sized, both in its statistics and in the cutscene which only adult red dragons are.
Thats also not correct, only young dragons work for the Gith, but that would be only as large as horses so Larian probably upgraded them for looks.

Yeah that's why I was surprised you said it's an adult. When I first saw the cinematic trailer I didn't understand how come the gith are riding red dragons (my only experience with red dragons was my encounter with firkraag in bg2 and he seemed like a guy who will never let anyone use him as a horse) so I did some extensive reading about it in the fr wiki.
