It baffels me why they added those, the OSA is pointless seeing the Rapier coming soon, and the strela could have been easily replaced with a Starburst or an LMM carrying vehicle. And its not like the british tree was added yesterday and they need to fill the gaps asap, the gaps in the spaa tree has been there for literally years now, why not just wait a bit longer to then add unique vehicles?
The only explanation I can think of for the strela and osa is they feel bad for leaving the stormer broken for 7+ months, meaning you had to use the chieftain marksman until 11.7 when the adats unlocks.
Yeah, they left the only spaa between 8.7 and 11.7 being totally broken for 7+ months.
(I’m mostly joking)
I think gaijin genuinely doesn’t understand that some people don’t want to use Russian stuff. Did the tree really need the bishma? Putting aside the shocking levels of ignorance in putting Indian stuff in the British tech tree which, if I was Indian I would be downright insulted, there were far better candidates for a squadron vehicle than some crappy tank with gun handling from the 50s, shockingly awful gun depression and a -4kph reverse gear.
Hits target with 1000KJ, warhead detonates and then sends shrapnel everywhere. Not what we have in game. This is test footage. Literally 1 hit kill. Not 3 hits.
I have the starstreak but i never used it since im still busy grinding a lineup for it, but from my experience from the test drive it does pretty much kill with one hit everytime, my issue was actually hitting things under 2km because the missile just zips past them so quickly
Starstreak launchers should have martlet missile as optional choice. (Proximity fuse instead of kinetic) plus we won’t have problem with it as first spawn AA weapons.
Yes. I mean i have absolutely no issues with the starstreak myself. I have like atleast 90-95% hit rate at a guess. I think it depends on wifi as alot of people say (i have very very good wifi) and the LMM Martlet would definitely help with its proximity fuze.
I read about the specs of the hittiles too in Wiki, but I’m sceptical…
They say the darts have a length of 396mm and diameter of 22mm, and half the weight of the darts, about 450g, being explosive.
Even if this was calculated as full cylinder that dart would be about 150ccm in total.
Composition B has a density of 1.7 g/ccm, so 450 g of that explosive would be about 265 ccm.
…which wouldn’t even fit in the whole cylinder, of which we assume only about half the volume would be filled with explosive, and then there’s wall thickness,…
50g of Composition B would be 85ccm, which I find far more plausible for a dart whose total volume is about double that…
