Unfortunately knowing gaijin prob won’t even if it came with a BR change, (which I’d live with) but honestly, please give the RADAR and IRST guided IR SAM’s target cuing, immensely frustrating to have a lock but finicky tone stopping launch.
I remember someone mentionning the 1A2’s used FAPDS for their main AA round due to its higher muzzle velocity and similar on hit effect, while also being a safer round to have/handle.
I never dug into it too much but it does make sense to me considering all the advantages, which is why it bugs the heck out of me that we dont even have the option to use FAPDS at all on the Gepard…

Im assuming gaijin are gonna be idiots and stick it at 12.7 with no fix to MP and no IRIS-T, where it’ll get obliterated by everythibg it faces if the enemy pilots are in any way skilled.
That being said, the vast majority of pilots in WT are utter garbage at the game, and barely better than bots due to gaijins consistent handholding of premium players, and ease of access to top tier via premiums.
Overall, with AIM-9L(i)/L(i)-1’s, the F-4F ICE should be 12.0, 12.3 at the very most if MP isnt fixed. Itll just be an EJ kai with better missiles, and the EJ Kai sits at 11.7, no way in hell 120A/L(i)'s woupd warrant a full 1.0 BR increase if MP remains unchanged.

also because in the modern battle field, armoured formations leading infantry on the side or rear are pretty much relegated to training an not actual combat.
thus ERA is more useful because there’s no infantry around anyway

Adding IRST-T, R-73M, AIM-9X, MICA IR, AAM-5B, etc at this stage to any aircraft would be idiotic.

Weird of you to accuse NATO of being liars.
Hardkill APS isn’t universal on NATO tanks, it’s on select units.

I’ll take the lack of an actual response as validation that my point has been made.
Or perhaps not, since there is a fixation on only a single aspect of it.

Wait they are finally changing multipathing?
That’s how the public takes it that’s not really what militaries are doing. Also western tanks don’t typically use “ERA” they use NERA (Non-explosive-reactive-armor) specifically because it lowers the risk of harming nearby infantry.

And NERA is made possible by, you guessed it, having a bigger tank, thus having more space for good standalone armor.
I mean some nato stuff use mix of NERA and ERA between their stuff like the PUMA

Ok? That doesn’t change that the main point of NERA is to lower the risk of injuring nearby Infantry.
It also doesn’t change the fact that ERA is still fitted fairly regularly on Western vehicles too.
Either way, what I wrote is an explenation as to why the Soviets developed better ERA than the West and why this was a necessity when looking at their tank design and doctrine, as faulty and false logic was used by AlvisVisla.
Even besides that there is still no reason to think that without ERA it would still be safe to be in proximity of a hit vehicle, whether it has ERA or not.
I’m quite done with the conversation as is, as my points were already made several comments ago.

it depends tbf since for example not everyone uses ERA and some use something similar but not the same, and the purpose of them is to stop RPG’s and chemical warheads for the most part since that’s a pretty good advantage ERA provides very good chemical protection for low weight
