How come planes get static airbase/spawn protection but tanks get nothing?

I know this game heavily favors the vocal CAS minority but I find it amusing how their bases are loaded with AAA defenses, yet the tank crews get nothing.
Infuriating having a close game, getting killed, respawning only 5 secs later to here the ominous whistle (when it works…) then 4 1 ton bombs spiral across the spawn killing me and the other 2 recently spawned tanks. 12 seconds I lived for…

Surely the devs can incorporate some static AI SPAA or anything to stop planes, especially heavy bombers, from carpet booming spawn areas?

It’s weird how pretty much every action game in the last 30 years has used some sort of spawn deterrent yet Warthunder continues to give CAS free reign of the game.

Spawn protection? Also in most of the games there aren’t people spam bombing spawn points, it’s usually just 1 or 2 people flying over the battlefield in fighters with bombs attached

There is no issue, as a playable SPAA exists. If anything, what I desire is an anti-tank gun.
