Dude idk why we havent added LMM Martlet either and thats a multi-role. They do everything they can not not make us the best.
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.
With the announcement that they’re working on multi-vehicle air defence systems, I’m really hoping we get land ceptor.
Fires CAMM :
- CAMM: > 25 km (16 mi)
- CAMM-ER: > 45 km (28 mi)
- CAMM-MR: > 100 km (62 mi)
It would be epic.

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
Oh, that’s down to the lack of automatic leading in its implementation.
In reality the system does pretty much everything. Designate the target and fire.
Spas could really do with a patch cycle to improve them significantly.

The Bhishma is one of the best vehicles in the 10.0 area for Britain. Kinda funny that the best British ground vehicles are the foreign ones.
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.
Thats not the poimt hes making
A suggestion already exists for it. It has less shrapnel though compared to the starstreak but the shrapnel it does give off can pen armoured plates.

I think the main selling point of Martlet is proximity fuse that come with it. This alone should help increase hitting probability by a lot.

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.
okay so they nerfed starsterak with giving it only 50 grams of explsovies instead of 400 as it should be IRL … no point in taking them
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…
I agree but you made an error 50 grams would be 29 ccm ;) soo you can triple the amount to 150 grams to fit ~~80 ccms~ which is more plausible :)

You dont really have a choice.
