ADATS, what Gaijin got wrong

It is abnormal, it was accepted as a bug, I hope they fix it soon

First the TWS wouldn’t stay locked on the target you selected since the F14 was added, and now this

I have the same one, it is in the public domain, but from 2019. And I was interested to know if there are any differences between them or if it is just a re-released edition.

that is a different file.

If you mean secrecy, then there is definitely none. What gets into the Internet is automatically no longer a secret. As they say, the Internet remembers absolutely everything 😂.

no, the title is different. And i wouldwatch out if i were you. People posted things already on the internet, and went out with a bang.

No, no, I don’t have access to closed documents. I only use what is available on the network and is easy to operate. As you can see, I found your file, but I don’t want to register on that site.
This is just a textbook for students.

look at the sources

from 1 to 8km range

Shud I send a report for not accurate minimal and maximum range

Have fun. Those values are both incorrect.

in the same “source”
the penetration was signed as 957mm and 900mm
again us mains are pulling out there crayon drawings

Finds 1 area that says 8km in a list of sources that say 10km. Wants to make a bug report to change range based off that. Peek WT forum moment.

This is some high quality crayon drawing then.

Are you talking about the Forecast International source? If so, at best, it is a secondary source. The primary sources (by lockheed martin and oerlikon) overrides that secondary source.

In addition, it could be very well referring to it’s high speed maneuverable targets.

Not really sure if this counts as a primary source but at least it’s on the same level of a secondary source


“A note on armor penetration: While ADATS was designed as a dual purpose system, its primary mission is against hostile aircraft. However, its performance against armor is described as formidable: at least 100 cm (39.37 in) was claimed. The application of our standardized formula for chemical (HEAT) warheads to the ADATS missile warhead yielded a penetration figure of 95.76 cm.”

The document reveals two different sources for these penetration figures:

  1. 100 cm: A claim made by the system’s developers but we don’t know who it is referring to
  2. 95.76 cm: A calculated figure derived by Forecast International

Reading comprehension sure is a nice skill to have.

Also, stop hiding behind a burner account lmao

Regarding the system’s developers, they’re referring to “both” ADATS’ we have in game

Again, once I have the documentation sent to me from the only person who is still associated with the system I will send it here too

Now on the dev server, Tracer is gone. Planes now have no idea that the missile is coming, but,
Well, trust me, there is a missile in the middle of my crosshair.

And how to use it against air targets then? Missile almost always isnt in center of crosshair

Idk. Guess that was not a problem IRL. They pointed a laser at a thing, it died.
During burn phase the missile was gathered onto the main beam using ALCOS, and then it rode the beam to the target.

did they fix smokeless motor

It was smokeless for a while

Well, IRL the missile corrects itself based on the laser generated matrix in order to stay in the middle of the beam. In game it does not work the best.

I think that in reality the missile should have an IR tracker that is visible only to the SAM operator in the thermal imaging channel.
