yes but since there isnt gnss on live they have to use mt and exposed themselves
but then even if they exposed themselves no spaa can reach them(aside from their own Pantsir)
cas-ing with any CAS other than su-30/34 is harder than you think, probably because you only use kh-38s and play RU
But hammers with this kind of guidance already exist, so theoretically hammers can currently do this in the live server?
We just wanted a simple answer and they provided none. Since it was so heated it was impossible to miss by devs. They ignored all of this and still evade giving any answers. Its just awful that we as a players have to experiance this
IOG doesn’t stop you from launching batch after batch of 38ml missiles on enemy spawn even now. Almost all of them will land in the spawn area.
Literally as soon as the Russian su34s spawn in, 6 players on the opposing side are automatically dead. And all I can do is look up with my ADATS and lose track of my missile a few hundred feet from the ground

yes but theres a reason why hammer isnt as good
speed
explosive mass
platform and popularity
hammer doesnt have alot of explosive → cant splash dmg
speed → slow, not even mach 1
platform → rafale is better air BVR/RB than CAS-ing and france isnt popular

It’s stupidly inefficient, that’s all. Moreover, there are a lot of planes on 13.0 hungry for kills and they will сome for such easy prey.

its not really ineffecient at all
you can get CAS really easily with CAS arnaments no problem
get 2-3 kills assists or scout to reduce sp cost
you can just sit and scout with drone and u get passive sp and resources
then u can J out to do the thing
u can have a teamate to just do the drone or second acc
Inefficient…It’s not like you can’t rearm…Spam 6 missiles maybe get 2 kills and then land and do it again and then when all SAMs are dead spawn the IR version and sweep the enemy team away.

Currently on live it’s definitely inefficient simply because all the current SAMs pose no threat, so why bother. But after the update, with especially the SLM, this may become more useful.
You can spend your initial run also by actually flying and spotting. And then do the missile spam. Beats having to spend minutes flying around trying to “efficiently” kill these SAMs, which may end up getting all your missiles shot down if you don’t spam them anyway, which could end up being less efficient in total.
There may also be more people spawning SPAA next update (may be temporary), so possibly extra useful strat.
Or 0 kills
And get again 0 kills. And then again 0 kills. And then you hit jackpot and get 1 or 2 kills and then rafale come and kill you. Because on 13.0 there pretty often can fly up to 3-5 cap planes while their team lose all point on ground)
Unfortunately, this is ineffective method in reality, although it looks good on paper.
Basically it’s like with this video. It looks cool. But if you try to do it yourself, you’ll realize how many attempts there were behind the scenes and how ineffective it really is.
If they don’t fix the ammunition interception for ir missile, then nothing will change and it still will be waste of time. If they fix it, then all these 38ml will be easily intercepted, because with the new spaa screen, you don’t even need a working brain for this.
Because is not yet in the game, duh. It’s coming this update, that is footage from the dev server. And Loner is no small time Youtuber, you’ll see people do this 100%

Then why are earnings for shooting down ammo so ridiculously bad, ofc nobody’s playing spaas when the SL and RP gains are such a joke, even I, who play spaas a godamm lot, am tired of this situation. Even when i destroy like 10 incoming ammunitions and shoot down 3 or 4 aircrafts i’m at the second half of the scoreboard.

I made a point (i think it was later on) that on top tier very few people actually care about rp and sl. People tend to research spaa last so its usally their last top tier vehicle so other than that sl is the one cuz thats actually what u can spend on lower tiers/other tech trees
I do like that all new spaas can engage munitions but the problem is the ammo. ~2 planes and u are basiclly done (not to mention how common kh38 spam is) and goodluck getting to the cap zones for a refill cuz these thing are massive and not so mobile
Yeah, keep spamming missiles at locations you think AAs are at. Then spawn IR version when you think you killed them all.
So many ifs and buts in your story that you even forgot your enemies can spawn a plane on their own, and get a free kill on a stalling plane just taking off for the 5th time, that is just trying to guesstimate the enemy locations.
Fear mongering squad back at it again with their doomsday scenarios.

I don’t know about others, but SLM got the ammo box for the launchers so total missile count should be 32.
That seems like a reasonable amount to have enough for both planes and missiles.
