When it was active the source was from a 3rd party author that wrote PDF on a general breakdown of South African equipment. For the R-DARTER I can not share any of the pages here though as it is restricted.
If you wanted to know - this was the source as I still have it bookmarked :
The M3 ADATS M242 wasn’t actually modified. As an externally powered gun the only change required to increase fire rate is to increase the power of the motor it is connected to.
Self-powered guns will require modification to increase or decrease fire rate, but externally powered weapons (Gatling style guns and chain guns, etc) can have their fire rate increased with additional torque and RPM from the motor.
so there would be a chance that it can fire apfsds
the reason that i dont think the US give it apfsds is because of accuracy, the m242 isnt exactly accurate but then who knows
I know but it feels like that is the standard of evidence gaijin would need for US vehicle
eg. HSTVL being denied other ammo despite the testing of that ammo likely being done by the HSTVL
bit different than them making up an ammo type for 2s38
APFSDS while nice is really not something that would matter to me because at the end of the day its an SPAA that happens to be able to kill tanks some times
I would much rather improvements to its radar/IRST so that it could actually track munitions for once and see planes in poor weather
it’s been far too long already, and pantsir is still literally the best spaa around, gaijin will never change anything about spaa of other nations except nerfing them even more for pantsir’s sake
@AlvisWisla you gone quiet bro - Generally speaking we agree on most things on this forum but this one kinda went silent from both you and the staff member I initially replied to on the matter of “Devs does not always follow accurate data”.
is there a chance for the MIM to have longer launch range?
the radar is 20-25km range so it should make sense to have somewhat long range missile right?
Your post didn’t supply proof and you’re not Fireball.
Your post supplied random screenshots, and I assessed there was no point responding.
March 5th 2024, that was after the bug report site started hiding the documents.
The bug report for R-Darter wasn’t even a nerf either.
On another note.
Updated May 2nd:
I hope we can get ADATS fixed despite that reality.
Jspene, demokrat, devilo6, etc have made bug reports on ADATS, which is something I’ve always supported and continue to support.
However, ileaveuptiers blocks everyone trying to fix ADATS. Which is concern troll behavior.
They don’t want ADATS fixed, they want to use bad data to make sure it stays where it is and block everyone that is trying to fix it.
