India and Hungary did use the Kub though I believe. Same with Germany.

Generally, the huge ocean between us and everyone else.

But if that fails, NASAMS. Also RBS 70.

I would love to see some more South-African spaas in game. And I think that the Umkhonto GBL would be a good fit for a high tier missile system. It has the capability of fielding multiple types of missiles including short to medium range IR and BVR Radar varients. I personally like it when a nation has unique vehicles instead of copy and paste vehicles(especially russian aa nowadays).

Unfortunately probably true. I heard that India bought a bunch of S400s to be delivered in 2026 and by the fact they added the not yet in service Badger I can easily see this coming. With how they treat Britain there’s a good chance they add this and not Sky Saber. (Idk if S400 is the same as ‘Buk’)

Nothing is planned in what timeframe? Next update or like the whole year? At least it’s not all bad cause no matter what you’ll have at least 1 good spaa on your team because USA, Germany, and Russia can’t be on the same team (For ground, I’ve never seen it in RB). So you’ll have at least some chance and reliance but a lot of SPAA players are incompetent. One game recently I had 4 air kills with my ADATS M113 when there was 7 American planes and a Pantsir S1 right next to me

I also really want the Ajax but as @Morvran says it’s against the ToS for us to have anything competitive. Also the 30mms we have are anything but pissy. They’re extremely powerful if you can have at least decent shot placement. (at least for now, praying they don’t nerf the apds cause they already halved the turret traverses instead of the nerf) I’ve had nukes in every RARDEN vehicle and they’re super fun.
What is pissy is the 25mm on the desert warrior. Useless vehicle they added probably to have an excuse to not add another IFV for a couple years cause ‘we just got one.’
Sorry that this triggered me lol I just don’t like to see my RARDENs trash talked I guess. I always hate to say it but skill issue.

Oh I love the RARDEN but I am not sure about the damage output of a 9.0 30mm with a ready rack of 40 rounds and a slow reload of them and it then being a massive un manoverable chassis

The badger isn’t that bad in test drives. And yeah the RPM nerd hurts huge. Barely faster than warrior. The only bright side to it is the chance for it’s br to go up is lower now cause worse firepower. I’m PRAYING it doesn’t go up; it would be very sad. It’s a perfect vehicle and has aspects I’ve been wanting for a long time and gives the chieftain mk.10 a perfect compliment at 9.0 and ending it’s isolation.

It’s survivability won’t be that bad considering 4 crew so it can take it’s turret getting absolutely nuked although any ATGM or most HEAT rounds will overpressure. Size is a good thing in this case cause for my rooikats I’ve had stuff zing through me and I’ll be fine. Or for the smaller VFM5 in the same game I’ve had an Abrams and Obj.282 shoot right through my turret front with 0 damage. Like the whole British TT itl just be harder to play and take more skill to be effective.
