Keep in mind that the Marskman has a modern radar, which I imagine if it has been modeled well in the game should be quite accurate, apart from that it is a much more modern weapons system than the Falcon, so it is realistic to carry the APDS. The Marskmann could not be put in Br 7.7 because of its radar, and I only dreamed I could put it in that Br nerfing its radar in an exaggerated way, on the other hand the Falcon does not have radar, it has cannons with good rate of fire and bullet velocity and a reasonable amount of ammunition, it is simply perfect to fill the gap of Br 7.0 or 7.3, for example I am using it exclusively as a SPAA and it works reasonably well in 8.3, so in Br 7.3 and without the APDS it would be a very competent SPAA.
Then the ZA 35 IFT because I at least want something that can move within 10 seconds not 10 years
Agreed. I’m stuck using fox and scimitar as the SPAA of that BR area it works out as the turret rotation is good. But they are getting nerfed really hard so I now how zero options
I use the Bosvark but high fire rate and low ammo are annoying as hell and the Skink can’t fire fast enough with little rounds aswell

I love the ystervark as it’s fast and ratty but it’s not super viable facing early russian jets like the SU9. My anti-CAS fighter also can’t keep up as it’s a mk24 spitfire
One of the things I love about it is the round velocity

I also used it in the Br 7.7 and 8.0. It’s not a bad SPAA, it does quite a bit of damage with the 23mm cannons and its bullet velocity isn’t bad, the bad thing is that it limits the ammunition capacity per cannon, something that you can mitigate using the ammunition boxes, the reload time, the fact that the cockpit bothers you a lot when shooting and the almost non-existent armor.
Finally some new, clear images of the SL-ASRAAM Supacat during the Chancellor’s press tour for defence yesterday

And MBDA said I wasn’t allowed these photos. Jokes on them I’ll be the next Chancellor of the Exchequer just so they can’t say no haha.

Yeah, the two with Reeves are from HM Treasury’s own media ops (didn’t even know they had one). So they can do what they want I guess
I did notice everything is photographed from that one side though. Including the Alamy and Getty ones by the press, so perhaps there was vetting.
Yeah I see the optical tracker on the top isn’t clearly in shot, we have a few other shots of the optic though.
It looks like it might be the same tracking optic as on the Gravehawk?
Briefly discusses the capabilities of the optic from the 1 minute mark
