can we get something after the Skink :/

217

Sure, theres some more Marksman SPAA options for 8.3 that are available :P

218

8.3 is nice, but how about 7.7?

219

Might be possible, but only for a few updates before its BR must be increased.

220

Then, do you have any options for 6.7

221

Give it a few more months. Im sure the Skink will be 6.3 by then :P

But joking aside. Yes. We need something at that BR

222

What will be the criteria for a 6.3 spaa?
Based on Gaijin br.
20-30mm gun.
Decently mobile
Decently armoured
Fast shells with small drop
With AT capabilities

223

Wouldn’t the Scorpion S530 work just fine?

224

I have no idea.

225

Hmm
20mm guns
Decent armour
Decent mobility
Not sure about the shells
Considering things above it might just be it

226

The thing I dislike about the Skink for the 6.0 to 8.0 region is its poor tracking. Doesnt feel like it can actually keep up with a fast jet bombing past.

So I would say

  • Decent mobility
  • Excellent tracking/gun handling
  • Very high RoF (or low RoF with prox shell? )

The falcon should have its apds belt removed and put back to 7.7, Gaijin should stop making spaa into light tanks

Only if we get another light vehicle with the same cannon, I want to be able to use the 30mm APDS one way or another.

Or better yet, just move the Falcon to the light tank line and add something like the Chieftain Sabre in its place.

230

Falcon uses the same 30mm shell as the RARDEN on warrior, fox and scimitar you wont lose access to the APDS of that calibre in one way or another

231

I guess I mean the cannon too, which is obviously much different than the Rarden.

232

I would like to see:

  • The Challenger Marksman at 8.7 (same as the ItPsv Leopard 2 Marksman).
  • Then replace the Chieftain with the Vickers mk.3 Marksman at 8.3 to make it closer to the mobility of the Gepard. (maybe if you removed the APDS belts from that, you could make it an 8.0).
  • The Chieftain could then get the Sabre turret and stay as an alternate 8.3, alongside the ZA-35.
  • The Falcon could lose its APDS belts and get booted way down to 6.7 (with just 53mm pen, it’s less than a lot of the 20mm SPAA at 6.0-6.3 get).
  • And we could get the FV721 Fox AA with a 20mm at ~7.3 to go with the other Fox.
    (That said, if the Fox is unstabilised, it should go down to ~5.7, below the R3).
