CS/SA5: Ground Shield!



You’ve literally never played the CS/SA5 so how can you be so adamant that its so bad

Just because they’re worse than other upcoming systems doesn’t make them bad. They might not be comparable in a 1:1 comparison but the CS/SA5 can do things the IRIS-T SLM can’t and vice versa

Do things like what? Having below 10km range and not being able to shoot down some helicopters? The gun isn’t even that big of an advantage

Like intercepting munitions/planes, helicopter within 0.1 to 1.5km

It’s capable of killing ground targets

It’s capable of firing missile without relyingon getting a radar lock

It’s much smaller and easier to survive in

It has its uses. It’s not bad by any means

Not that you’d know since you haven’t played it

FB-10A model spotted on the files.

Spoiler

everything can intercept helicopters within 1.5km. “killing ground targets” good luck doing that. the fact that you dont need a radar lock doesnt change anything since its so much easier to get a lock with the radar menu anyway. surviving in such a piece of shit doesnt do anything. the only real use of this anti air is to kill helicopters, which can be done effectively by any other anti air.

Naw, antelope can’t kill helis to save its life

They could at least fix bugs people reported since day 1 of release with the seekr and the missile loft that is absurd, same problem we had with fox3 when they had been added to the game and later fixed shortly, i fear this spaa will be gimped for years and thats the problem, like gepard stingers were

?pantsir better then this shit…

The lofting is my favorite part of the CS/SA5 it allows for some really nice kills when the target gets behind cover or is treetop level.

And yeah it still has some issues with tracking logic in longer range shots where it never let’s the IR seeker acquire the target, I’ve reported this myself aswell. And I hope it does get fixed
But by no means do i think its bad its just not on the same level as the other new SPAA’s

Unlike you I’ve actually used it lots. No it’s not bad

ye its not bad, but if the missiles work properly with the radar, and the search radar was better + able to use searching with tws without actively tracking people, then it really would be good and not mid.

(apds would be funny)

its really not bad but definitely lacking compared to the new stuff and definitely the third worst out of the new spaa pool from the past update and next upd. Hopefully china sweden japan and probably israel get a (better) multi vehicle soon :]

Pls go ahead
play the spyder

Yeah i oppose your claims which are based on nothing but speculation

If we had the same VT5 in game as in the article I wouldn’t oppose anything
(Wrong convo oops)

What does the spyder have to do with this conversation?

U said all nations have playable spaas
