CS/SA5at 12.0? Same BR as the Pantsir?

compare to AIM C7 of the CLAWS fired from the ground the FB10A has a good energy maintenance but well we already know the problems (20G + strong loft + non-optimal trajectory, IRCM messed up, etc ect) the bad points are too numerous for it to be considered as a good missile but it has qualities, insensitive to the flare of the helicopters but sensitive to the scent of the planes… the loft allows to hit from above the helicopters which try to hide with the relief (but of course the losse is too pronounced) + the fact of its weak strong point acceleration and a sustainer allows it to degrade its speed less

I’m not looking for excuses for this missile, it’s still bad for its Br, but I notice that there are things to learn from it.

Yeah, it seems that the majority of the new SPAA are just far stronger than other 12.0 i kinda hoped they’d all be near identical strength wise. Unfortunately i fear gaijin will say x nation got a spaa and don’t need a new spaa and ignore them despite their SPAA being essentially useless. Ive played a few matches so far trying to get the Claw and my Tan Sam Kai and ive yet to see a SA5 or Elde do anything useful because they lack range or the missiles just cant keep up with their contemporaries, honestly its in such a bad state id rather people stop pulling them because they are a waste of a player when we have any other spaa up which is unfortunate cause id like all spaa to be decent.

yes, with the matches that I was able to play I noticed that the victory ratio of the USA in Israel considerably decreased necessarily at the beginning of the game 1/3 of the team takes out one of these new SPAA which makes less armor against the Russian wave, result every time that I was with the USA I was sure to lose the game… and all that for what in the end to shoot down 1 or 2 planes because now people know what to expect and it gives games where you have 4 guys in CLAWS who do not block do nothing, do not attack nor defend literally 12 vs 16,

We could also talk about the KH38 which still breaks games and the SPAA in the end are not even good at destroying them I do almost better with my AHEAD ammunition

I have the impression that we are witnessing the death of the top tier and that everyone will go back to Br as it becomes less and less playable in the top

Gaijin fix your game

Honestly the only way Gaijin will fix this is if the majority of the community starts to complain

Friends, visit my topic and you will find out that the FB-10A missiles are not only infrared but also must be radio command as parl even Wikipedia has about it

Wikipedia is not a source, just saying. Thankfully we do have brochures, but it runs in the issue of there’s no IR + DL in game (and I honestly no idea how to actually this can be modeled, beyond just copying ARH mechanic and replacing radar homing with IR)

Seems like China really has it worse (has been for a while)

IR + DL is modelled in game, it indeed works similar to ARH, just with IR instead fo radar. It’s implemented on the IRIS-T SLM and AIM-9X blk2.

Dosen’t look welcomed.

Make it 11.3 or 11.7 it will be more suitable…

Well, it just was an explanation that I heard from one of the tech mods (I think?) why CS/SA5 isnt it

Yup. Truer words have never been spoken. Gaijin has consistently proven the systematic underperformance of Chinese vehicles. Even the ZTZ99A has been plagued by typical Gaijin errors since its release. We had the DTC10-125 scandal, and then the spall liners (which has been accepted for the ZTZ99A but is yet to be implemented), and a plethora of modeling errors.

And oh boy, the CS/SA5 is just salt on the wound. They outright refuse to correctly model the FB-10 missiles. This thing is supposed to be 12.0? What a joke. In its current state it is a pile of burning hot garbage.
Gaijin is literally baiting classified information at this point. Why doesn’t Gaijin provide sources? Why are they so critical when they can’t even do it themselves? There is not a single source out there that says the FB-10 does not have radio command guidance and IIR. Naturally, Gaijin allows obscure Russian documents to slip past but then draw the line on the FB-10? Real fun stuff.

Insane bias by Gaijin

Gaijin has it on good authority that China can’t out-engineer Russia. Thank you!

If gaijin does not want to fix CS/SA5,please lower BR.

They are very arrogant, they think that Russia can’t do it, other countries can’t do it, and the pictures on countless display boards have been vetoed, and the most bullshit is that the manufacturer’s information is incorrect and this manufacturer only makes drones, and finally brings up a big piece of shit and lets the player pay, if it’s just infrared locking, you can attack the aircraft 18km away, then the missile will not be able to be interfered with, it seems that Gaijing doesn’t seem to know this

btw it seems it suffers the same bug as the Pantsir does, as in, locking the missiles

Although they may not admit but the fact is RU is far far behind China already, not even since recently but decades ago.

That’s the problem. Also probably bias
