Do you have any images or sources proving the IDF’s capture of the Strela?

Unfortunate. Feel free to add it to this forum discussion when you find it

Apparently this was a claim from Jane’s… So I’m starting to doubt how true it is
I tried making a suggestion of it, was nearly accepted, but I need more sources about it’s training

Honestly I’d even settle just for this thing (Only has Python 5)

This would also be a pleasant addition, but I believe that top-tier ground desperately needs something better to fight back against CAS going forward.

I agree with all exept what u said about the pantsir
The pansir is still very capable and even op spaa and now with the new tor the red team has another very good spaa
Between the Strela and the ADAMS I think things would be pretty sufficiently covered until the next generation of SAMs come in. The ADAMS’s missiles have a range of either 12 or 20km iirc.
While the Pantsir is certainly the best SPAA in the game, it is still woefully underperforming compared to modern CAS weapon systems. Missiles such as the Kh-38, outrange the Pantsir by more than double.
You can imagine that if the Pantsir is having a hard time, then every other SPAA in the game is helpless.

But pantsir diesnt go against this missiles
Pantsir goes against maveriks and brimstone which it can intercept pretty easily

And to make it worse, the Pantsir doesn’t usually have to deal with them since they’re normally on the same team.
(but that’s a whole different conversation)

Well its great also it missiles goes 720mps which almost half of the pantsir speed
more specifically, SPYDER can use derbys and python 4 & 5. the pythons specifically are aim-9X level, if not better. which means this AA should have both good AA capabilities against long ranged CAS. and also be able to shoot down closer threats like hellis or a random guy with a stukah at 11.7 for some reason
great choice coming out in 2060 for war thunder

Then lets use another example. Missiles such as the late generation AGM-65 models such as the G and D as well as the Brimstone still manage to comfortably outrange the Pantsir. This doesn’t take into account all the new GPS-guided glide bombs that these aircraft carry in bulk. The new Raphael will also be receiving GPS-guided ordinance capable of tracking moving targets independently and comfortably outside of the Pantsir’s range.
Now imagine if any other SPAA had to deal with that. We’re in dire straights if nothing is done.
Indeed.
There is early versions of the spyder with only python 4 and derby which are isnt that good it wont even be top tier spaa cuz lack of range so that could come with no issues
It has been passed, so it’s not unlikely to come soon. The issue is that it needs to come quicker than later along with other similar capable systems.
yep. I wont count on gaijen though
Give HVSD/ADAMS and make Israel the coolest kid with the coolest SPAA on the block.
