We’ve already discussed this point here MILT line of sight doesn’t make much sense.
for what ? more time for anti air intercept ?
Lmao If none SMSV , Russian player 's complain will filled about MITL post
Of course but the discussion is about the existence of a difference (not why there is a difference) and whether that difference affects current balancing too much.
Not surprising considering the playrate of the SM SV compared to other top tier SPAA.
If a team cant stop that with the best SPAA that is also by far the most mobile top tier SPAA then they deserve to be orbital striked.
Intercepting the missile is one thing, shooting down the helicopter launching the said missile is another.
I feel like you lack a little bit of intellectual honesty here, you understood perfectly what I said and meant.
Anyway, no point to continue the conversation really
I think CAS is simply superior
I don’t get it as MILT is in the game, it doesn’t make sense to discuss distance
He’s coping
That’s why he’s discussing this

CAS is so blatantly overpowered

It does man, the big ass post I wrote was all about certain helis shooting MILT from very far and not being able to get shot down by ennemy SPAAs due to distance, while other helis can be shot down by other SPAAs
I mean, read the post
They can shoot from behind a hill
Where’s the damn point in being far away
You’re better off being closer since your missile has more energy and gets there faster
I mean if you refuse to understand what you actually understand reading the post, don’t try to argue just to be right lol.
Enough time wasted with you, I go now
CAS is superior and that’s okay since it’s much much more expensive than SPAA but it still has to be balanced. And let’s be honest a russian team getting successfully hit by james strat relies more on the team getting hit being incompetent than on skill on the pilots side.
to be honest i’m also confused.
if you have MITL missile you can just launch it behind the hill without LOS. the only LOS you need is the aircraft to missile for re locking and missile to target to be locked. aircraft and target did not need to be in LOS.

I mean its just click poi on helipad.
Not against multiple ir munitions. Or gnss. Or laser. Or tv.
Its possible to kill helo without even entering gun range.
If you’re out of reach from SPAAs, you can launch all your missiles with LOS without worrying about being shot down
If you’re 30km away, it’s also harder for jets to find you (they expect you around helipads, they don’t even bother using radar), and impossible for helis to get you (unless they counter your Spike MITL with theirs)
You’re basically unkillable, that’s the point
that’s something i guess?
but why though? you can just stay in helipad most of the game and shoot multiple MITL repeatedly until you win. why do something extra with less return at this point.
You also won’t get kills because:
A. Your missiles probably won’t reach
B. You have to fly out to that distance (Helis aren’t fast and max spawn is ≈16km away
C. Your missiles will take like a minute to get to the target
Keep in mind track lock range for IR guided munitions is max 10km for ground units
You’re completely misunderstanding what makes MITL op and are arguing something that’s utterly pointless
If you stay on helipad, jets can find and kill you easily
If you’re at the very end of a game and few players remain, your 16 missiles might just be enough to finish them. It can be handy
Aircraft at 13.7 in grb have aesa radars
They’re spotting you anyways

You know, it wouldn’t hurt you just to admit I’m right lol
You’re trying to change the subject, saying that being out of reach is not useful because use of radar, hide behind a hill blablabla.
Just say that yes if someone decides to shoot MITL 17 or 25km away with 28NM or Z-10 without being shot down by NATO SPAA he just can, stop being so childish
Is that some kind of inferiority complexe you just have, tryna get the last word or something ? lol
