At this point I’d take a placeholder gun piper from anywhere else. Gripen not fire the same calibre? Surely they could model it off that

Hey, we need that gun indicator, don’t take it from us 😿
I thought esa radars when in look up mode had no radial Doppler filter, only when looking down does it have one
GBU-39 got limited to Mach 1.1 on DEV.
Dunno how it works in the game but falling objects from directly above tend to be missed by pantsir players. I guessed that it doesn’t show up on their radar screen for lack of doppler shift but it could be a number of things including skill issue :v
AFAIK most (if not all) SPAAs/SAMs have a radar deadzone in a cone above them, so they can’t see objects coming directly from above or at a steep angle of >70-80°. ALARM would loiter exactly in this deadzone invisible for them and also attack from there so if they don’t destroy it on its path to this deadzone, they’re dead. They also wouldn’t register it as a threat because on its way to the loiter position it looks like it flies past above them.
AFAIK, pantsir should not have a dead zone. Among other SAM without vertical dead zone, I can also think of the SAMPT. There’s probably a bunch more (Buk 3 ?)
SM-SV has 5 deg deadzone
SAPMT has 95 elevation as of now, so it even reaches over vertical
Buk has 40 deg of deadzone on the search, and 30 on the launcher
