EldE 98: Missile Trolley

Type 81 is honestly a mystery as to how people cry about it being good. The amount of players ive seen scream its OP without ever touching it will never not make me laugh

This goes for every vehicle in the game to be honest… A large majority of “vehicle OP” complaints i see are from players facing things they think are to OP but they have never actually played the vehicles themselves.

doesnt that need to be fully deployed before it can rotate and fire?

Technically yes, however all were designed to be fired directly as is in emergency situations. I suppose that would include warthunder.
They would have increased recoil to the sides, but thats especially in warthunder pretty much irrelevant.

also this compared to the BvS 10 is quite different ofcourse, 1 is a trailer the other one has 2 powered parts

For the traverse you mean? Or do you mean the german guns? The powered things on the bigger Flaks are for the Feuerleitgerät, which isnt in game and is useless in the ground role, as its for combined AA fire.

well it seems that i was right about LOAL coming too… haha

Hopefully they’ll add that LOAL function to older vehicles as well, like the Lav and Ozelot.

It’ll be pretty interesting to see how LOAL SAMs will work. Just hope they keep giving us more AAs in the coming months.

once more as it was topic in this blog already, LOAL can also mean a missle is feeded target data before launch and just activates the seeker after launch, it does not nessesary mean that you can influence target selection after launch

Even this would be helpful, especially against helicopters. It might also imply those IR missiles will have seekers that can’t be flared, so planes will have to use the terrain or defeat the missile before the IR seeker activates.

the danish M24 is an odd choice though not really unique in any way

welp the EldE 98 is probably very DoA compared to all the 40km sams that we seem to be getting

I think it will be very effective at taking down incoming munitions and saving the bigger systems so that they can focus on the far away CAS.

Thats if it can destroy incoming munitions additionally 4 missiles before reload is DOA lol, good hope but its not enough to stop me from using a Ka-50 or 52 against you lol or my Su-34 with KH-38

It is just my speculation, but it is possible it will also have the multi vehicle mehanic. They showed it in a group of 3, so it might be a possibility, but they might have also just put 3 of them next to eachother. Time will tell.

that one very likely can be taken out great, with vertical launch it wont fly straight at the target to get intercepted by vikhers

It will definitely be interesting, IF it cant destroy enemy munitions its will be DOA for me at least and ill just go play the plethora of other nations for the SPAA shenanigans until sweden is worth looking at lol. SLAMRAAM is looking fun but its a shame Norway probably wont get it despite being the lead in its creation.

Wont lie though im looking forward to Germany SLM looks amazing but gonna need to see its performance.

That’s like one of the big selling points of the IRIS-T, when carried by a plane it can even target missiles chasing the plane from behind.
