You said the reason right there lol.
I am going to go play WoT then yell on their forums about how there is HP and fake tanks.
Honestly, the air modes are completely outdated legacy modes that need to be torn down and rebuilt from the ground up.

When is the last time you checked the description of this mode ?
Because it clearly says combined arms since day 1.
Ah yes, Stingers, definitely the most reliable MANPADs in this game
Air RB players would be justified in their complaints on playable non-aircraft being added to the gamemode. Even adding helis to ARB would result in justified pushback.
Wanna know why? Because nobody likes dead weight on their team. What are ground vehicles and helicopters supposed to do in ARB? Last time I checked ground vehicles couldn’t fly and had maximum speeds of 120 km/h at most and helicopters had maximum speeds of less than 350 km/h.
People should learn not to spawn nukes if there are SPAAs that can easily intercept them.
- Are you playing on a terribly designed map where planes can just approach the battlefield without exposing themselves to SPAA? Go on, spawn your nuke.
- Do you know for certain that there is no SPAA that is an actual threat for you on the enemy? Sure, why not risk those spawn points.
- Are you aware of there being active, actually effective air defence vehicles in the enemy team? Don’t spawn your nuke or accept that you will likely end up wasting 2500 SP.

You heard the nuke siren, J-out tank, get in AA. Try to come up with a better answer again.

siren is bugged tho, you can drop a nuke without sounding the alarm.

It really is that simple though. Think before putting 2500 SP at stake.
I’ve never encountered that.
I’ve had that happen in countless matches
Try hugging the ground after you take off - siren triggers when you reach certain altitude. If you fly at treetops siren does not trigger.
I think trigger is the same as that small “reward for take off”, so around 100m above ground

That would be in line with my experience, had a lot of cases where the sirens went off just seconds before the nuke carrier arrived and cases where the sirens never went off because the map was flat enough for a nuke carrier to never get the take-off reward
Well, no. The siren starts playing as soon as you spawn with the nuke plane. I’ve caught them a few times before they even took off.

“I ran into the same bug, and I speculate that the bug works the same way, i.e. as long as you keep flying low and don’t trigger the take-off prompt, no one else can hear the special music of the nuclear bomb plane. Do you need an official replay address and a specific time?” - 8 months ago
I don’t know what to comment on. Either this is a random bug, or we’re playing different games.
We are playing different games then.

They were in planes. Siren don’t work properly for air. You hear siren only when near tank map. Ground always hear it.

Ground only hears it if the siren goes off in the first place.
Also, not one of the posts I linked/quoted said that the players were in planes.
Lol it’s a TANK game go play enlisted or something if you want infantry
you can go do that and get laughed at
it can be rebuilt but not with player controlled SAMs
there is already plenty dead weight in all air RB matches, this is not an issue.
the issue would be non-aircraft in the aircraft gamemode
