On my best match i managed to score 9 kills with Merkava 4M+F15I while i did much better in TKX/Type10+JAS39C combo in single match. Funny thing is i was much more confident in my TKX compare to MK4 while not having same amount of smoke or gun handling or even APS.
It seems Merkava 4M is better than i remember but still not on level that Type-10/TKX in my eyes.
Enemy team was not great and only managed to spawn in couple planes and one single Mi28NM at the same time they spammed Pantsir’s in order to stop my F-15I while I was demolishing their remaining forces and their air units.
CAS still threat to players if its used by experienced players, some people say new SAM systems made it harder but actually it forced us to adopt much harder environment thus made us better CAS players in my book.
For example when I spawned in my JAS39C while I was playing my TKX I noticed IRIS-T and decided to spam my mavericks on it, guess what happened?
Due to my spam IRIS-T’s radar confused and all of its missile missed me while my mavericks destroyed him and his units Xd.
3 game was more than enough for me, due to knowing how butchered Merkava’s are compare to irl performance plus bein sized of building it doesnt feel charming to me anymore.
I guess I got used to small and nimble tanks which is why I prefer TKX/Leclerc and T-Series/VT-4’s on these days, tho Chally’s,M1A2’s and Strv122’s still hold special places in my heart so I try not to ignore them too much.
Maybe when Raam Sagol discount comes and I decide to purschase it I might comeback to Israel tech tree once again.
Hey, premiums are premiums lol. Makes life a bit easier.
Although, quick question, is Israel worth grinding out? I’m debating it after I finish Italy but I don’t know if its really worth it. So asking someone who clearly has experience.
Depends on who you’re asking, to me its not for others yes its worth it.
Israel tech tree is neglected in most ways, most vehicles are implemented incorrectly in many ways while it lacks good portion amount of vehicles with different modifications.
For example we still don’t have Merkava3D tech tree model despite bein the best Merkava 3 model that was ever produced or how F-15/16’s lacks Python-4’s or how Sabra Mk II is still missing and how SPYDER is so garbage.
Not gonna even talk about armor protection on Merkava’s and Namer’s tbh.
They require high skill level but man they are so satisfy to use and judging you have experience with ıtaly you’re probably not gonna suffer but enjoy it a lot.
Wish you best during grinding if you’re not planning to buy premium vehicles tho Xd
