Fixed is a stretch, it will only have 8 missiles in total with ammo boxes, since you’re not allowed to replenish more than double your ammo load. For instance an ADATS (8 total missiles) can only replenish 8 missiles from ammo boxes before it stops it from replenishing them.
4 standard and 4 in a box is not a good missile count in the slightest…
8 missiles is a workable amount, I consider it as middling. More than the average amount of air targets (excluding drones) I recall encountering in battles at the BR. Personally, I think the ammunition box should not be added due to it not being realistic at all.
Workable amount yes, but I still consider it to be on the low end.
that is only one box, there will probably be several dropped by light tanks for SPAA.
I don’t believe it works that way.
please dont compare the type 81 with the antelope, the type 81 missiles actually work, the ones of the antelope are actually broken, as in literally wrongly coded.
I thought light tanks just got one ammo box each that they could deploy anywhere?
no, light tanks doesnt even have them, only spaag, sams and atgm carriers use them
All tank destroyers and SPAA get them. Its funny bc the T95 gets them lmfao
tanks destroyers also gets them? i though that it was just the atgm carriers
Nope, all tank Desiree’s (which is what ATGM carriers tend to be classed as) receive them as well. Its likely an oversight.
Calling the Type 81 (C) bad is just… bruh. The missiles will always hit the target, unless you fire from way too close or too off-bore or the enemy makes them hit the ground. High flying planes have absolutely no way of dodging them. The only real weakness is low flying helicopters with IRCM. The missiles being fire and forget is a great perk as well.
You can’t hit anything up close because of this random delay that doesn’t apply to Russian SPAA for some reason, at range it won’t lock, helicopters are also impossible and anything low flying causing you missile to nosedive into the ground.
You still get the best lock-on range out of all the IR SAMs iirc. As for hitting low flying targets, as long as the enemy isn’t flying into the ground (or a heli hugging the ground), the missiles will hit. It is the most capable IR SAM in the game right now, on par or even better than some top tier IR AAMs.
The Israeli Drakon isn’t much better, I’d rather have an Ozelot lmao
Doesn’t mean anything to be the best when everything else sucks even more, this is their top SPAA and it cannot deal with helicopters, it cannot deal with scout drones, it cannot deal with a lot of the long range CAS, it cannot deal with targets nearby either and everything else is still a major threat because you have no radar and got to manually find pixels in the sky in a 360 degree radius.
Uhh, it can? Absolutely, it can.
Idk what you’re on, I usually have a blast when I take it out. Just find yourself some cover to not get owned by long range missiles. It is no Pancir, ofc, but also sits at a lower BR.
It’s only a tiny bit removed from the Pantsir despite not having a radar, not having guns, not having long range missiles or anything, it’s not even in the same ballpark as a Pantsir yet it was considered top tier alongside the Pantsir until the Type 90s and such got a BR increase so it can be used at a lower BR.
Try to manually switch lock-on mode when it has trouble locking. Photocontrast would probably have no issue.
It always has issues, auto shouldn’t be an issue either.
