The german Ozelot is another absolute masterpiece of german engineering. Sadly is the Ozelot underperforming in War thunder, I think we german mains can agree on that and we wont care if it goes up in BR… The Bundeswehr has details on the ozelot: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jucHrY7w79I.
Maybe it can get a little buff?

as in? beside the horrendous modeling of stingers of course, but that would affect all stinger carriers.
Unless you want every stinger user move to 10.3 or high BR, you can go ahead
One of the leaks from the upcoming update included “Limited Lock On After Launch” capabilties, which if true would allow the Stinger Ks that the Ozelot carries to slave off the IRST and be fired outside their usual lock range.
This would be a nice buff against helicopters, as well as against all targets on snowy maps.

I would like stingers to work.
it also means ozelot goes up un BR
+1
Its fine
You are small enough to hide anywhere, you got a great IR searcher and wont warn anything you lock onto. You just need to get used to shooting at targets at the right moment, when they are probably not paying attention/are focussed on someone else
I would like to be able to fold the launcher though, that would be nice
yes maybe I did not say that right, I want a buff for the stinger missle
Why? Why is this sentiment constantly parroted on the forum?
Stingers as of now can be easily dodged by fighters 20 years their junior, eat flares like crazy and straight up refuse to lock helicopters and drones most of the time.
Simply making them effective, as in useful at their intended role, should have little to no impact on their BR’s. Effective SPAA should be available throughout the BR’s, it’s not like the Ozelot can go tank killing either.

the SPAA i use the most is Stormer AD. it has the same FIM92 rockets and they are quite unreliable. locks on hellfire drones even when super close, never gonna work. Helicopters you physically cant lock until the pilot is dead.
If they do get a lock they work really well, the problem is just that the IF is a big part of it.
if these rockets became reliable all carriers it has would have to go up to reflect its threat to aircraft.
good. SPAAs being abused as tank hunters is an annoying issue with the game, people play tanks to shoot tanks and be shot by tanks, not an AA system abusing the game
