ADATS, what Gaijin got wrong

Lol yes, the worst part is that the Kh-38 lofts quite aggressively, so I can only really track one manually before the rocket burns out and the trajectory straightens. At least they don’t have the habit of shooting multiple because then I’d just die guaranteed pretty much. The heating due to high speed thing hasn’t really helped much in my experience, I can still often only lock missiles while they’re still actively using their motor.

I hope to see some radar improvements next update. Though I think the biggest buff so far is that the 11.7 matchmaker doesn’t face Kh-38MTs as often anymore, and otherwise a Su-25 can be dealt with much easier. Had some pretty good success with the ADATS lately, but it’s mostly because people fly really suicidally so it’s not that impressive.

Does anyone know if there’s any proof that the Mim-146 self destructs after 6ish miles? There are so many times that it gets outranged by UAVs which travel so slow

871

Max intercept range that was listed is 10km. So thats what devs did.

2 years and ADATS elevation is still not fixed

4 or 6 shot patriot missile truck at heli pad 2 shows up and can be destroyed by CAS.
You control a radar truck and fire missiles from the missile truck when locked. Reloads work from the radar truck.

did the report get denied? or are they just not implementing it

877

It’s in a purgatory. Passed, and nothing else.

The curse of gaijin
I swear ive seen like 100 reports at this point just for american top tier vehicles that has been accepted but just sit in purgatory for years before they do anything about it
At this point whats it matter how good your sources/report is if gaijin is just gonna accept it then forget about it

Not sure if this is it, but I think Gaijin is adding 3rd person cueing for IRST to all who have it, this includes ADATS.

Sadly no TWS on the radar, or elevation fixes, but this should help a ton already.

you also can lock targets from 3rd person now too like other AAs

885

Does it actually stay locked?
I havent tested it yet for this but previously if i tried to lock the 38MT i think the missile is just moving too fast or something for it?
It would lock it for a second and then lose it

886

yes!

887

They did some kind of bs with the proxy and it doesn’t work 75% of the time
