israel(and not only, for example USA, Japan, Italy, etc) need CAP airplane spawn at any time of battle, like Baz meshupar with 6xAMRAAM and 2xSidewinder. With cost like 350SP, similar to helis

What would they add? Israel doesn’t have any system that could be feasibly added to replace the Chaparral.

First spawning any aircraft would make the CAS “problem” worse because they can target any light tank with their cannons.

Israel does have them
but theyre Python 5/Derby
sadly - gaijin doesnt want to implement ARH SPAA, at least yet

  1. theres not a lot of light tanks on toptier
  2. you always can take SPAA/CAP to fix that.

I said Israel doesn’t have any feasible options. SAM systems like the SPYDER and the Patriot would make it so no aircraft would be able to exist within the airspace, thus ruining the game mode and not being a feasible option.

oh, pantsir already doing same)

I don’t know the last time you played top tier, but there are always a few BMPs, Centauros, CV90s, Bradleys, and other light vehicles in the matches I play. And on the topic of taking out SPAA to counter CAP aircraft, can guess what else SPAA counters? CAS

only if with any sort of smart weapon - otherwise thats named skill issue of SPAA/CAP player.

Skill issue, learn the strengths and weaknesses of the opposing units, and learn how to best counter them. Pantsir is easy to kill if it is distracted, obviously, but you can also easily dodge the missiles in maneuverable platforms like the F-16, JAS-39, and other light fighters. I know this from personal experience.

issue of player on pantsir.

surely, you can, if you know about pantsir. it can just turn off search radar, lock you with track radar, be invisible for your RWR(only few planes can see it). With this update it will be even funnier - you can justrify Pantsir search radar from Su-34 for example.

Any spaa can be easly killed if distracted by multiple jets, its not an argument at all. Also if specifically you are easy to kill on pantsir, it doesnt mean every S1 player is terrible on it. I dont know how its even possible to have negative KD on this vehicle.

Also you probably havnt noticed there is usually multiple of them at the same time.

I wonder how comes youre arguing in this topic while not even playing Israeli top tier except AH-60 wich is probably happened before it got moved to 12.0.

Honestly I would even take an OSA-AKM for israel from another nation. Anything is better than the Chaparral

I never said I was bad at the Pantsir, I said I was able to dodge missiles from the Pantsir, but the point I’m trying to make is that it isn’t some death machine that is making it so nothing can get close to the battlefield.

We’ve got two options for higher BR SPAA systems (to my knowledge).

The HVSD/ADAM

And the SPYDER

SPYDER

The SPYDER would not work, as I’ve stated before. If using the Python-5 missile, it would have more than 20km range, if using the Derby it would have a 50km range. That is too effective to be added to the game at this point.

The longest-range guided missile in this game can reach a maximum range of almost 40 kilometers.

The SPYDER doesn’t have guns. It’s also limited in missile capacity.

There is no ground-based player-operated AA system in the game that can reach 40km, what are you talking about?
