Italian new SPAA

By the way this is not Romanian this is a french SAMP/T (commercial name Mamba) it has been deployed there with the current war…

afaik romania bought Patriot

Look, nothing against you. SAMP/T is just the first system that came to mind, and it’s also the most well-known mobile system from the Italians. Yes, if Gaijin integrates a better anti-aircraft system into the top tier for Italy, which also has, say, a 15 km range, that’s fine with me. Well, I don’t think I need to comment on the OTOMATIC anymore; my opinion is already known by now.

Yeah, could be I dont know. It’s like VT-1 sources. Some say 20 - 100 km missile others 20 - 40 km. I dont know there.

Yeah no issues, i agree the italians need a better AA, hopefully they will at least get the Aspides

I think it’s because the radar can detect up to 75km, and the missile reaches 40km, which can be confusing

We get trailers next patch? We already ahve trailers since a long time. Looking at the Churchill “whatevername” with flamethrower

Still no match for my Kh-38MT

Well it was heavily hinted if not indirectly stated in the latest behind the scenes that next generation of top tier AAs is coming next patch and one of the teased pics was identified, if i recall correctly, as that funky swedish tracked vehicle with IRIS-T trailer.

uhh, interesting. Dosnt sound to bad… but then again… it will be damn big and slow right? so a super easy prey for CAS and Tanks? We will see i guess.

Also, maybe that be just AI AA?

nah, the next AAs will probably cause real issues to AGM slingers, so much so that they probably won’t be able to attack tanks without dealing with AA first

Besides, we still have no proof for KH38MT 's existence. Being no match for a missile that doesn’t exist sounds quite funny i will say

🤷‍♂️
It is what it is

one problem with placing these systems is that they are big and you won’t be able to use them on normal maps unless they put a bigger expansion for these types of anti-aircraft

Draco with DART SACLOS 40G guided ammunition should replace the Otomatic at 11.7 while it should go down to 10.7 at least. The dart would make it very good at intercepting AGMs and low alt cas

but did the b1 centauro (draco) ever fire?

if I recall the turret was basically just an outer shell with nothing actually in it

It’s so funny seeing gaijin tease competent spaa for other nations, some of which dont even need them, yet we have been stuck with goofy ahh anti ship gun at 11.3.

There is no reason we can’t just get a sky guard aspide launcher with a truck pulling it. Tldr; if gaijin wanted to they could, they just chose not to.

You can clearly see guidance radar there, attach that to a truck with someone controlling the missile. Even if it my not be totally realistic, it needs to happen for balance. I’m glad we got Osa though, honestly it’s just fine for me even at top tier.

its not a matter of they chose not to, its more of a they haven’t yet, stop being so pessimistic

We can give Italy the Pantsir S1 since Ethiopia has Pantsirs and Ethiopia was under the Italian rule for quite a while.
Similar to how Great Britain got the Indian Osa and Strela, Italy can get the Ethiopian Pantsir S1

Main issue with this one is that I have gone to the deepest parts of the Internet and have not found a single source on any truck with the Skyguard system, not even an Iveco truck :(

Welp that could be a problem

Not for Gaijin, as we know. If that would be a problem for Gaijin they wouldn’t have added the Kh-38MT or other types of rockets or tanks.

Honestly we will just have to wait for camm to be delivered to the army, some of those launchers have an IRST onboard so no external radar is needed. I just don’t know if the Italian ones have that feature
