The HQ-11 is a missile-artillery integrated system, currently lacking a land-based 1130 close-in artillery carrier vehicle
In the introductory video of the Zhuhai Airshow, it is clearly stated that the HQ-11 includes two vehicles: a radar missile vehicle and an anti-aircraft gun vehicle.
The current HQ-11 is affectionately dubbed HQ-5.5 by Chinese players。akin to how the 9A317M system launch vehicle can operate independently. It is equally unreasonable and unrealistic to only provide the 9A317M and not the 9S18M3
HQ5.5 has never been an official name; it is a derogatory term for HQ11 in the game, which currently lacks a close-range defense system, indicating that it is only half as powerful as the real-life HQ11
OR;
Solution B: Give all Tier 8 non multi-vehicle SPAA a free spawn if you spawn this vehicle once. And you still could use backup to spawn for third time - then you got the fourth spawn for free. Free respawn count 50% repair cost.
Yes, she is very cool. And considering the limitation of the shooting range, she won’t disrupt the balance in the game, because fixed-wing aircraft can easily launch attacks from outside the shooting range
While I’d really like to see it as a china main, but adding the 1130 close-in artillery carrier vehicle would be too unbalanced. The point of such AA systems is that they can’t operate at close range, so this system will be capable of engaging targets at any range.
There are two solutions: either one missile launch vehicle and 1130 close in guns, or two missile launch vehicles without radar can be placed on the radar vehicle
At the Zhuhai Airshow, the HQ-11 air defense system has been clearly stated to be a combination of the FM-3000 and LD-3000. If Gaijin insists that it only consists of the FM-3000, then it should not be called the HQ-11, but rather the FM-3000 missile launcher. Based on the current test server data, the FM-3000 missile launcher not only has a small ammunition capacity but also is not a particularly powerful missile in terms of paper specifications. Of course, adding the LD-3000 may not make a significant difference, but since Gaijin promotes its vehicles as historically accurate, it should equip the LD-3000 for the system.
I prefer the vehicle as it is now rather than having two other launcher vehicles. Gaijin should just add an unlockable modification to get both launcher vehicles so everyone is happy
