yep, thats the funny stuff which is going on with 60% of the SLM reports XD
im convinced they are told to reject anything in favor of the new AA systems without making it too obvious
(its still obvious)
what a shitshow it will be when they add the S300 and it will be the new next OP thing

i cant shake my feelings that not our sources isnt good enough
but is they refuse to believe and just hate German stuff ==
They very likely wouldn’t, which is what Gaijin is counting on with demanding primary sources for something that entered service in 2022.
what how its related to bug report?
@Smin1080p_WT Good to know Diehl and Intracom Defense are now a third party source tbh (both are producers of equipment for the system LMAO). Might be worth looking into who this tech mod is, cus he’s been rejecting pretty much every single report on the SLM for the dumbest of reasons. At this point this has to be deliberate and not just “tehe, sorry misread”.

it’s just malicious at this point

I wouldn’t mind as much if they didn’t immediately lock the comments, so you can’t refute any errors they made in their assessment. Even just 24 hours of extra comment time would be sufficient.
That used to be the case on the old forum actually, but since the switch to this new separate website, and the making of mods anonymous, they just close reports for whatever reason and don’t allow you to correct their mistakes.
Atp they’re on an actual power trip haha.
At least he gave us a clear sign that the Pantsir is wrong.
“A land-based missile by definition cannot have such high starting speed”
Apparently no ground launched missile can ever go over Mach 2 then. So let’s report the VT-1 and Pantsir Missile as well as the Starstreaks.
I have no words anymore… By definition?! Does he know that the rockets used to fly to space also are in fact ground launched? How fast does he think Spaceshuttles went? I guess planes also can’t reach speeds higher than Mach 2 then. Man this guy whoever it is, is really unnerving…

This is why anonymous tech mods just makes the whole system worse by lowering the bar for actual moderation, and makes the whole system free of consequences for poor performance.
The old system was better, knowning who your mods were built trust in the community, this is a blunder on par with marketing lies.
If the whole making tech mods anonymous was because of doxxing, then it’s on Gaijin for not protecting the privacy of their employees.

The inconsistency against Munitions is a different issue that became more clear after the changes that came, after this report was created;

is there noone that can be contacted in such cases?, this does just feel like a powertrip of a single ( or few ) mods
just like this
someone going around rejecting everything until another mod actualy has a look at it

You’re reading it wrong, he’s saying “starting speed”. not max speed.
It would be quite interesting to see a land vehicle going mach 1 before launching a missile XD
So the exact same missile launched at mach one and going up to mach 3 cannot be compared to being launched from a stationary starting point. Mach 2 for the SLS seems reasonable and is what i have seen from most sources.

I didn’t read it wrong, but I have to admit I assumed it was a bit wonky english.
Even then. I hope that the Tech mod knows that the drag of an object and the thrust needed is squared.
If the Missile reaches Mach 3 from Mach 1, it will realistically accelerate to past Mach 2 on it’s own. It also depends on the launch altitude though so that’s a point that can make a difference.
I still find it highly dubious that someone goes around making wild claims. They ask for precise sources and then make up claims of their own that are just bananas.
Look at the radar range one:
“Radar mininim range is wrong”
The answer?
“That’s because it can’t see the helicopter low to the ground.”
?!

What sources show Mach 2 for the SLM missile? The only sources that say Mach 2 are for the SLS which is the A2A variant. The SLM has improved motors and more fuel so it would be unreasonable to expect it to perform the same.

if they tought that far aheat they could also see the conection between going mach 3 and hitting a target 30km out in 60s

This assumes it has fuel enough to get up to that speed from the ground. It’s a lot more complicated than that.
This specific one isn’t a crazy claim at all. you have to take into account engine burn time as well as it having to maneuver from the very start. mach 3 is MAX, at high altitude (way less drag), high launch speed, flying straight. From the ground it HAS to make a 90 deg turn the first thing it does and it is automatically in way more dense air and as such has much more drag to fight through.
I didn’t say anything on the SLM. I’ve seen only one published secondary source state mach 3 for the SLM. Most other sources are third party and cant be used for reporting.
