How2pantsir?

finally started using top tier AA’s, turns out i like the pantsir more than the BUK.

But how do i engage multiple targets with the pantsir?

You can’t.

it’s a SACLOS Guided Missile, not Radar homing.

You only use the radar to track the target.

I’m pretty sure the pantsir can engage up to 4 targets at a time no?

No.

The targets all need to be in the tracking radars FOV, lock one, shoot then tape the “cycle radar targets” key to switch to a second target and repeat, the radar will guide up to 3 missiles and the last one you shot will always be SACLOS following the crosshair like a regular SPAA.

i get what you’re trying to say here but this isn’t how either the missile or the PANTSIR’s radar works, what you’re saying is shoot delayed shots and switch targets (which are tracked due to the radar) and you will still have to manually guide them by using your mouse.

he’s asking how to engage multiple targets by “locking on”, a “fire and forget” system, which doesn’t exist with the Pantsir.

Youre lowkey just overcomplicating this, engaging multiple targets doesnt mean its FnF.

Like this notice how the Jaguar I shot at survived when the radar switched to a friendly and he went out side of the tracking radar FOV? (I should probably turn friendly targets off but there is not normally that many planes):

not fire and forget, it’s sorta like data link

You can track it and then switch to a target and then fire a missile, and as long as all targets are inside the radar scanning radius, you can get every aircraft at once. You can engage like 10 or more target at once. And as long as you keep your radar on lock the missile will keep going, kinda like data link.
