Most people don’t, other than the current DIRCM and being able to carry a better variety of ATGMs and more. Until now KA52 was better off the fact alone that it’s not immediately rendered useless and fragile when the hull gets blacked out from damage. The DIRCM is stupidly strong against anything not SACLOS from my plays with it. Doesn’t matter if it’s ground launched or air launched

Yeah, I still typically see whatever premium helicopters are around for nations more than anything from what I see. Maybe people are in the same boat as me, where I’ve unlocked the whole Soviet helicopter tree (by turning on the grind heli via ground option) but then can’t bring myself to grind the 300k worth of modifications, lol.
If DIRCM is that strong, I might have to just grind it out.
Just spawn SACLOS spaa lmao
I agree. This is why we have lineups. Even if DIRCM did make the new SPAA pointless, you should have SACLOS SPAA in your lineup as well, and there are usually some on your team anyway.

Thank you. Came here for this.
The IRIS-T family has a high-resolution imaging IR seeker with digital processing, which was specifically advertised as being resistant to flares and DIRCM. But instead the red side gets the upper hand on both near god-like DIRCM defence for their top tier helis and top tier AA that simply bypasses DIRCM (as if the Nato helis had DIRCM to begin with). Same old same old.
Just read the report. Surprised they actually accepted this. Now they just need to find a new way to feed the bias before this can be finally added.
