If the Falcon is getting an ahistorical radar, an additional Falcon without radar should be added alongside

Consideration for other SPAAGs at other BRs is indeed something under review.

Good to hear. On the chance that the Devs aren’t aware of it I’ll throw the Vickers Valkyr with the twin 20mm H.20 turret into the running for a 7.7 system.

The Sandringham 6 Air Defence would also be ideal for around 6.0, just these 2 systems would almost completely alleviate the current gap.

With only a tracking radar it hardly comes close to a Gepard.

It will be more like the SIDAM or Shilka.

There is also the cheiftain sabre, imo the falcon should move down in BR and this is pretty much onpar with the AMX spaa

Hi Smin, apologies for the ping again, but I have been provided with primary documentation explicitly stating that the Falcon did not have a radar. I’ve made a [DEV] bug report for this, and attached the relevant excerpt below.

Wouldn’t “radar surveillance” refer to a search radar, not a ranging/tracking radar?

No, but that’s irrevelant. That radar that is being added to the Falcon (based on a non-Falcon brochure) is a search radar, it’s unfinished on dev which is why it is only a tracking director or whatever. The above document is confirmation that the Falcon did not have it fitted.
