Its said to have “half” the turning circle of an R-73.
That statement came from a Person that works at Diehl Defence as a Manager.

Wich would give the IRIS-T 100+G that it can pull

here the actuall quote “If the Sidewinder turns 360 degrees on a watermelon, the Soviet Archer on an apple and IRIS-T on a plum”

I would say it is not a mockup, but I might be slightly biased

what would you call it then

446

Go and check what I attached.
And the bias part was a joke due to the fact I’m the creator of the suggestion.

Why add EldE instead of NOMADS?
productsheet_nomads_web.pdf

There is more info in open sources about NOMADS.
There are more NOMADS out there than EldE´s.
NOMADS is also compatible with Iris-t.
It can carry other missiles that could be added in the future so devs wouldn´t have to work in a new vehicle.
NOMADS could be more reactive and still have to take some time to deeploy (or be quiet) to shoot.
Yes, it is in a very early state of production but 2s38 was in the same stage when it was added.

There is no real reason why NOMADS isn´t added.

EldE 98 is cooler, and gets a way better radar im pretty sure

also swedish TT so a native swedish vehicle makes more sense

They really should just give this thing the slm.

455

still says 6 not 5

even so, 8 is the more prominent number

456
  1. the EldE is a much more unique concept of vehice
  2. they if they focus on the IRIS-T as a missle, can choose both
  3. new weapons/systems often get introduced alongside a unique concept of vehicle
  4. we have a similar looking vehicle with the rapier
457

cant carry the SLM

458

Top AA in sweeden is Finnish and VIDAR and f5A(G) are norwegian, bro…

459

and ? its still the swedish tree
If options are available gajins gonna add their own in service version.
And Norwegian does not have tech tree addition its not a subtree

460

finland is an actual subtree, while norway is just a couple of event/prem vehicles

461

Again: Top AA in sweeden is Finnish and VIDAR and f5A(G) are norwegian…
Also you could add NOMADS to 2 or 3 nations and it would be less work for the devs and better option for more players.

462

i think the EldE 98 is better anyway so im happy we are getting it instead

and for the swedish TT it makes sense to grab their vehicle over a subtree if they would be nearly identical
