Yes! Other nations that operated this vehicle include Hungary (a much needed buff for Italian anti-air) and Poland (when, Gaijib??)

Strela should be 9.3, just spawn a tank to kill it, you have a counter so use it bro

Ka-52 should be 1.0, just spawn a biplane to kill it, you have a counter so use it bro
Oh yah I forgor
Yeah I agree! And while we’re at it the AV-8B+ is too weak for 12.3, let’s move it down to 6.0!
Spawn a tank to kill an SPAA on the other side of a map hiding in a spawn? This is satire right?
Not to mention you know just how powerful its photo contrast mode is right? Its practically unflareable to every extent…
Need this in-game. Not sure where it would go BR-wise. I’d imagine 9.0? Or is this going to be a surprise monster like the Strela-10 was before it boosted in BR? If that’s the case, 9.7 lol.
Either way +1
As will Gaijin

All in for this. Many other nations used or still use this system, meaning it could be added for the Italian tree as well, most likely as the Romanian domestically produced CA-95.
Sounds like a 9.7 material to me at best tho. It is an IR missile, offering photo-contrast mode only (good luck at night), has only a very limited range, the first version only having 4,2 km. Saw a video of the missile being fired, it seems to burn the fuel for 8 seconds and - to my surprise - pull quite well.

that would make it far much better than 9.3 spaa’s, it think strela should be 10.7 or 11.3 because of how good it is
The other AAs are useless and overtiered. The Strela is fine.
200+ voters and a year old, and still not passed to devs, I guess it’s not because it’s been considered ‘redundant’ because the Strela on the MT-LB exists and is the exact same thing?
It’s not, the missiles are different and less effective. Slower, shorter ranged and with a less effective photocontrast-only seeker. That last bit is quite important as it means the missile can only be used against clear skies at least 2 degrees above the horizon.

I know what the photo-contrast does, I guess I missed the worse stats part.
The new multi-vehicle SAM system would make this much more worth it
BTR-60PU-12 command vehicle
9K31 Strela-1M launchers
P-15 Trail search radar
and 9T244 ammo transporter to replace the ammo crate system

I would support this implementation of this relatively famous SAM of the Cold War. Though I wonder how effective it would be against later modern jets?
There would definitely be a need for at least 6 missiles, because 2 would be not enough for sure.
This Strela-1M is still used by many nations around the world.
