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.

Zero risk to the player though
Zero risk ?
You’re constantly slow from the landings which makes you a sitting duck.

The only people I see defending this addition to the missile or the missile at all are the people who mainly play USSR to begin with and have the SU25/SU30/SU34 as their top vehicles for ground kills. They’ll remain stubborn as they’re not the ones being killed by these missiles, so for them its fun.
Just say you want easy kills with your broken missile. Its not balanced. No need to jump through these hoops.
Honestly at this point, no point of even complaining about it. Gaijin doesn’t care about what we have to say. CMs avoid commenting about it, the only time they got involved was when people went way off-topic on the KH38MT existence thread but even then they didn’t acknowledge what the discussion was about. Makes you wonder why they avoid commenting on the topic itself.

Hydra + stinger is unironically great ive managed to kill multiple 4km + helis with it
Yup, I’ve died to it, maybe it was to you XD
Ive been playing mostly russian aircraft for a while cause i find them fun and a2g monutions are bonkers in sim. Its fun plinking comviys at 30kms with kh38ml. I wish we had more static targets and infantry in sim. If it was dynamic ala nucleor option it would probably be the third most played gamemode

Idk if you have played any of these school bus sized spaa but they dont like to move, and a lot of maps you are stuck in a posistion where if you do move its almost guarenteed death to ground units. You arent moving these last second to dodge a failed intercept, and thats only going to be viable around hard cover which only works against low alt launches on you. You could kite while you intercept so if it fails you have momentum, but a lot of maps this is impossible or will get you killed by enemy ground vics.

Ye the question is if this ammo box only replenishes 1 launcher (shared) or 2 launcher (separate)
I hate that gemblem limited spaa ammo box ammo count to just 1. I get that spaa shouldnt be sitting in one place but bruh we are playing in times where one plane can spam +4 missiles and cant even shoot down that plane so it rearms and spams more
