Yes.
Is this some kind of rule from Gaijin or what?

It isn’t. There is a clear detachable mechanism on the ones without.
Also 30mm CS/SA5s are still called 625Es.
Identical to CSSA5 in game. 30mm, short cannon.
There is a distinction, 625 E was never accepted into PLA service, only 25mm CS/SA-5 with HN6B were accepted into service. Therefore there is no such thing as early or late as they are all basically prototypes and are independent to each other, developed for different customers.
Spoiler
As seen 25mm have different sides.

There isn’t a “clear” detachable mechanism, whether there is one or not I’m not sure but it definitely isn’t a clear one.

Bug report this with secondary or primary sources if this is the case, for simplicity sake I’ll still refer to it as the CS/SA5 until its corrected in-game.

The definition of “early” or “late” in the sense of military usually refers to the year the variant of said vehicles was produced and the cycle in which its produced, multiple variants can fall into this “early” or “late” category and doesn’t discriminate between prototypes and actual production batches - I could’ve worded it better but it isn’t technically wrong.
Most of the information you’ve given to me is news anyways and I do appreciate it such as the Type 625E never entering service and so on.

China does do this a lot; for example the HQ-17 with the PESA array and M1 search antennae, the varying performance of PL-12, and the use of PL-5EII on many of the late 3rd gen jets.
I personally think they should have done the 625E instead of the 30mm since its capabilities are far more documented.

I trust what BVVD said, it will be comparable to pantsir when finished.

pantsir have 12 missiles that reach mach 3.7 in less than 3 seconds as u can clearly see in the video attached to the post or if u go and test it out yourself, with how slow the missile is and how it cant reach it max range properly with awful g pull, it will be just good at best

I wonder how they think this can be comparable to pantsir lmao, its actually ironic seing the poor state of the vehicle, i bet they would acept any 1 page source with 2 sentence issue if it was about russian spaa, like they did with 2s6 when they buffed it g pull and guidance

the way it will be implemented to the game doesnt make sense at least at the br they want to put it, in what world its almost 1 br higher than hq17? u wont even be able to kill enemy drones or heli past 6 km bcs they refused to give it loal like other sams

You shouldn’t have any expectations of what the developer team said.

well then they can’t just make up stats and ruin yet another chinese vehicle

They can and they probably will

I don’t get how this vehicle should be higher than 11.0, considering the Strela sits at 10.3

fb10a is still unplayable
Yep. Up to the closure it is still not possible to lock onto heli consistently beyond sth like 4km.
I think this can be written as a bug issue." Can be chosen outside the test drive but do not change after entering the game."
BTW, the missile’s TNT equivalent is only 1.26 kg, despite weighing 65 kg.
I know weight doesn’t directly translate to explosive equivalent, but the TNT equivalent seems off for such a large and modern missile.
For comparison, the Pantsir missile has about 7.2 kg more TNT equivalent, greater range, weighs only 7.5 kg more, and is nearly twice as fast.
Something just doesn’t add up with this missile’s specs.

65 kg is only FB-10A, which made no changes to FB-10’s explosive compartment, in fact nothing barring more fuel and DL which we can’t confirm doesn’t exist on FB10 for sure. For FB-10 that would be sort of R-60 level which draws about even, although SAMs normally do have more explosive mass, also TY-90 has more explosive despite being half the weight. SO it really is dependent on missile, not comparable to Pantsir missile but definitely should have more than this.
