Decompress soviet ATGM launchers

Dose anybody even play those things anymore? I haven’t seen them in ages, the only atgm carriers I see are the Wesel 1A2 and the occasional Mephisto
With so many IFVs with near as good ATGMs and auto cannons being added the pure ATGM carriers as mostly redundant as the IFVs have only slightly worse atgms in exchange for far more versatility in armour and auto cannons.

Is that an issue with the missile or the armour though? How long has Trophy been broken now? Gaijin needs to get their bug fixers moving.

To be fair, the kriz’s radar is fkin amazing.

Sees through smoke, tracks moving targets etc. it’s awesome and it could probably stand to move up a bit. I don’t think it would make much difference to the vehicle itself tbh.

775 is apparently just as capable as a t80ud

Object is fairly popular, i see it regularly in my US 8.7. Shturm or Krizantena less so but i do run them in one or two if the map is open enough.

IT-1s on the other hand, those i see regularly

HAhahahhahaha…
Hope you first play those before talking.
Biggest downside is all soviet ATGM launchers need direct hit. Unlike Tow 2B types what just explodes over that tank what is in cover, and those things doesnt got scouting, unlike weasel what is sitting in 9.7 also.

So nope, you are delusional on this proposal

Have you ever tried the tow-2b? It’s nerfed into the ground and pretty much doesn’t work.

I removed them from my desert warrior (not that I bother with that thing really, they really, really screwed it over with the apfsds they gave it sadly)

Yeah, works wonders especially on aa’s and every light rat camping behind hill etc.
I mainly hunt bigass radars spinning on enemy spawn on those.
True, they are unreliable against mbt’s, but still usually cripples em by damaging breech.
But still better vs just direct aimed , when you cant pen Top tier leos on hulldown even on 1200 pen tandem if it hits on cheeck , and quite often it still ends up same thing just taking breech out (or gun) and if lucky commander.

I’ve tried them and for something that can damage enemies that are fully behind cover, I’ll say they work decent enough, same for Spikes.

I tend too have far more success with the bill than the tow-2b.

My favourite thing on the bill is killing things in the buildings on abandoned factory. Fire them through the window and it’s amazing.

I would give my left nut for some vertical traverse on the launcher though.

I agree with your answer because Soviet atgm need to be guidance and with the small maps around you take high risk to get spotted once you fire the missile and guide to the target.

Khrizantema-S in 12.0 is totall joke because you dealing against tanks that have actieve protection systems or multiple composite armour in front. I test several times against tanks in 12.0 battle in map like Sands of Sinai. It works well against verhicles hitting them on the side but frontal is only damage the modules and crew not enough for instant death it require second missile to launched.

I am going to hazard a guess and say that the OP has never actually used any of these vehicles…

“high penetration = OP”

This belief is the sign of someone who does not know how the game works

As I can see from your account, you haven’t played a single one of these vehicles. In fact, it appears you have never even played a single vehicle that uses an ATGM.

lol
The only notable difference between Khrizantema and Shturm-S is the penetration.
And both Shturm and Khriz are already decompressed and correctly BR’d.

saying Shturm-S/Khrizantema-S have “slow travel time” is the worst lie i ever heard

literally ATGM launchers are well known for being 0/10 armor + 10/10 main weapon

so knowing that Object 775 has the best reload of all ATGM launchers in-game, also that it’s flat as hell and has hydro-pneumatic suspension, it could be 10.3

and also armor isn’t a problem cuz as i already said: ATGM launchers have 0 armor in most cases

I say increase the BRs they are a menace!

I joke but basically you are expected to use a system that has 5km range on a map thats 500m

These systems will never be good. Maybe in SIM but lowering the BRs isnt the answer

Leopard 2A7V can’t stand a chance against Khrizantema
M1A2 SEP V2 also can’t stand a chance, and it gets overpressured
Challengers also can’t
TKX/Type 10 also can’t survive to it
VT/WZ/ZTZ just get annihilated
Ariete… well its an Ariete
Leclerc also dies instantly, but u need to aim correctly
Strv 122B+ dies even faster than Leopard 2A7V

Merkavas, PUMAs, premium Abrams, Challenger BN and Namers are the only exceptions

if khrizantema got more gun depression, if could be good for hull down techniques like the IT-1 with its -9º
