Pantsir is the best SPAA for sure but CAS right now shits on everything, even the Pantsir since it doesn’t have smoke. We need an SPAA upgrade for all nations.
That is speed not range.
I mean you can clearly see that the R-27ER has travelled 3km further and has more speed.
F-16C means nothing when the Pantsir is up, lol.
The Pantsir-S1 I’d say probably has the upper hand compared to all the others with its insane RADAR but CAS is partially giving it a run for its money (but significantly less compared to the others). The AGM-65’s and the KH-38’s are wrecking ground vehicles.
I completely agree that we need other comparable SPAA but we’re pretty limited for some nations and imo the options we do have are completely overkill at the current time. Like the SPYDER AIO, NOMAD, and Land Ceptor for example, are going to absolutely delete aircraft.
Remember that Mavericks are fire and forget while the Pantsir has to manually guide the missile all the way.
Again, that is speed rather than range.
Range is distance to hitting a target from launch.
Even if you showed a range test, 3km is not enough across over 70km to be dissimilar.
The pantsir will fire before the f-16 will, and most likely will be able to retreat to cover in order to escape it as well.
Yeah this is quite a frustrating issue.
The F-16s don’t even have to joust with the Pantsir at long range. They can just play peekaboo and retreat once they fire their mavericks. The Pantsir in that situation has the disadvantage because know where the F-16 will pop up is a matter of guess work.
don’t understand why you’re complaining so much about pansir. pansir, like any spaa, doesnt win battles.
3km difference when the ER has covered 21.2km and the 7F covering 18km, and yet the ER still has more speed.
Radar?
I have yet to hear a non-russian say this. I think that’s ironic.
Simply hug the ground.
And then you’ll have a hard time getting your mavericks off lol.
Peekaboo strat. Climb for a brief second, fire mavericks, dive back down. Its easy to find Pantsirs since they’re massive trucks that have poor mobility.
why?
Because only russian players act like the the pantsir isn’t that good
