German SPAA's are garbage, some sort of a high RPM low caliber SPAA is needed at 6.7

This is absolutely hilarious to me

‘‘you don’t need it’’

Where do you get off deciding who needs what? I mean sure, I wouldn’t need it if gaijin ACTUALLY gave wirbelwind alternating fire it had in the history, but nah, can’t do that, how else would german players get dicked over by CAS right?

I mean, you’re here complaining about one of the best AA nation as if it’s unplayable.

I’ve played all WW2 German AAs (bar the Coelian since I missed it) and they’re all incredibly easy to use. Kugelblitz in particular because of the closed top nature, long effective range, moderately high RoF, high damage, decent pen for defense against tanks, good turret elevation/traverse speed, and moderately long sustained fire duration.

Yet here we are, hearing people saying Kugelblitz’s RoF is slow.

what do they need, a laser beam to shoot down aircraft?

450-500RPM is just atrocious for AA at 6.7, it’s not even good enough to track propellers effectively let alone jets unless they are coming right at you which is exactly why most nations have a high rpm alternative.

kugelblitz poses zero threat to any cas player who isn’t a complete moron.

Not enough, there are 20 more spaa variants for russia that are not shown in the game :P

There is a russian adats copy… still waiting.

Fact of the matter is that it’s good enough to the point where it is regarded as one of the better AAs of the BR range.

Goes for all AA, not to mention it also depends on the AA not being a moron.

good enough in what, that it can last a couple of shots? That doesn’t help when it can’t do it’s job either

I think it’s not that it can’t do the job, but clearly you can’t. Seeing me and most others doing fine in it.

Germany consistently has fairly high firerate SPAA with the ‘lowest’ rate of fire being 250 rpm. The average is 450 rpm (for a single barrel) so I’m not sure how that’s considered ‘unusable’ when americans get SPAA with less than half that and do completely fine.

Yeah, I said the skink is sucky too, germany and US are the only ones without a high RPM vehicle. both nations have trash AA, I guess germany is slightly better off than US, but not by much. Basically every other nation has gotten a high rpm cold war spaa, only US and germany did not and there are definitelly vehicles germany could get to cover that weakness.

Yeah nah, the Kugelblitz got nerfed to the ground and below already
