Where did this get mentioned?
I’ve seen nothing about a UK SPAA this update.
Not this update, in the coming updates. The updates later in the year. If they feel like it.

BVVD mentioned the Aster with SAMP-T for France and Italy…but nothing for Britain.
But yes it seems Britains version isnt ready, designed or modelled

They could literally just use the german Version tweak the model slightly and boom add an asraam then you have a supacat it really wouldnt be hard for them to add an spaa for britain they seriously just neglect some nations over the cash cow nations not to mention the MMEV which is just a lav chassis with adats turret that fires mims CRV 7s and iris Ts

Did he mention this in the Russian devstream? Or was this a statement made some time ago?
Dev stream he mentioned France and Italy not Britain

As a Joke
We are British
And we got Tracked Rapier recently
So we won’t get another SPAA from Gaijin soon.

Interesting, so Italy IS possibly getting a new AA, very swag
Italy will likely receive the French SAMP-T they have purchased them
SAMs for other countries that have not received theirs this update will get theirs next update. That is what BVVD said according to a trusted Russian translator I know. However, Gaijin needs to switch gears because SAMP/T did not use Aster-15 missile which has a range of ~45-50km comparable to SLM. Instead it used Aster-30 which has a range of ~150km+.
They should instead add CAMM-ER for Italy/UK and MICA VL for France (and MICA NG VL later down the road when it comes into service this year).

I could genuinely see that!
Least it would be good unless the F us with the Russian one is the BUK 3M2 The Indian one is the BUK 3M1.75…Doesn’t get access to the Radar features or the best missile…Sorry Britain
the most logical choice as it works for both the uk and italy
a worse option but still ok but limited missiles
modified by the uk for ukraine much like the previous vehicle
@Morvran can you think of any other options
Hmmm…
None that immeidately come to mind. Britian I think might be considering the SkyRanger 30 and I dont think the Dragonfire is planned for anything land based.
SkySabre is our primary system meant for dealing with aircraft out in the field.
it will also benefit from the being able to launch without the radar vehicle like the typ81c
Yeah, its halfway between IRIS-T SLM and Spyder with both an external radar and AiO.
Also has the right range at 45km.
Also not top tier, but a Rapier battery system would be fun. 2-3 towed Rapiers and a towed radar unit would be very fun for 10.0-11.0

unless they can claim the manufacture is lying it should have the capability
Does sound like a Marketing lie
Or they can just let Britian use the Type 45 for our top tier SPAA :P
so the ER is the only one used by both the uk and italy which still retains the ability to not need a radar vehical
