same for the SLM
So does the IRIS-T SLM and the new japan spaa variant?
Neither of them have been announced so far and if they were going to add seperate radar station, then why wouldn’t they give China a longer ranged SAM that required a seperate radar, like the HQ-16?
its gajin, they are spreading the different roles, sweden only has SLS for super short range as well
Sweden got this one because they don’t have anything between the Elde and their Patriots and both Norway and Finland could only supply NASAMS
just wait, you constantly not believing in the leakers is a you problem honestly
Why would I believe that Gaijin is going to add 40km range SAMs to some nations while keeping others below 20km range, despite there being options for longer ranges?
I don’t see any indication of them adding SAMs with more than 20km range.
the times you always said that and were always wrong lol
Always, huh?
1 way this shit could work without major flaws is
spaa like SLM at like 13.0/13.3 br
move cas like the top stuff up too
and then the EldE would have a place at like 12.0/12.3
Sweden could’ve gotten the RBS 23 with 6 20 km missiles since they’re apparently adding external radars this update.
I don’t think anyone is expecting that we’ll get it all at once though. Gotta start somewhere, and we are now getting two top tier SPAAs in this patch alone, so that makes for a good beginning.
If they are adding external radars they could have given Sweden a NASAMS unit, which would have had 30km range. Similarly China could have gotten a HQ-16 unit.
Giving some nations “medium range” SAMs that require an external radar, while keeping others limited to “short range” SAMs makes no sense whatsoever.
It absoluty does make sense.
1 you dont know yet what kind of disadvantage the multi vehicle stuff is gonna get.
2. Those vehicle have a minimum engangement range. Which the iris t sls and type 625e doesnt have.
They can work in tandem to protect each other
Then again, why limit some nations to short range only when they have options for short range AND mid range, especially if something like the SLAMRAAM and SPYDER AIO might come.
Ever heared of the magic word diversity.
Besides that Multi vehicle systems are still highly experimental as well. We dont know how it would turn out.
As a result if possible gajin decided to add standalone vehicles first if possible.
Japan and germany dont currently have options.
As a result they decided to first test those with it.
Its realy not that hard to understand
Diversity lmao, good one.
Sure, let’s make the Anti Air imbalance even worse by only giving some nations 30-40km range SAMs so there is potential for one team to only have short range SAMs while the other gets both short and mid range SAMs.
Makes perfect sense, just like the Pantsir, Kh-38MT and the F-14.
Why make the game more balanced after all, forced artificial diversity is more important.
(As if all nations were using the exact same Air Defence systems IRL and Gaijin has to limit some nations to keep the trees unique, in a game with randomly matched nations where it’s important for all nations to have roughly equal weapons btw)
And completly ignoring the second valid point i made and how they cover areas the other cant reach.
Good job, you selectively read and only conplain about what fits your narrative.
Besides that you speak like imbalance is below gajin and it never happend before
So tldr, yiu are aalty cause your nation isnt getting your prefered aystem gotcha
Your second point is entirely irrelevant, as all nations, except for Israel, already have decent short range SAMs.
And sure, if being concerned about the balance means that I’m being salty, then I’ll happily continue being salty.
Spoiler
Also, “my” nations (even though I’m concerned about all nations when it comes to Anti Air) SAM hasn’t been announced or even leaked yet.
I have to disagree. Pretty much every nation but Russia needs a newer, more capable SPAA system. Rolling them out to only a few nations at a time is not the ticket here. Especially when you consider which nations often get paired together.
