Major Update "Firebirds" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 2)

Python 4 vs BLK 1 9X isn’t a huge difference

The better choice is to just give both 9m though since the game isn’t ready

I do wonder what they will give the uk for its next top tier SPAA, ideally SkySabre but something is telling me we might just get an OSA from india (tbf if the 15km stat is right will be a very nice upgrade over the ADATS)

G6 HVM would be nice, better than a C&P OSA anyway

the first actually good Wheeled SAM platform too

while that would be great and im seeing the max range was about 14 and half KM the fact it says the max effective range is 12km means that is probably what gaijin will go with and this will only pull britain in line with the other SAMs like Ito 90 and flakrad while still far below the Pantsir, at the very least it did have a PESA radar

The ItO 90M? FlaRakRad? Pantsir?

the SkySabre has been seen with sights so we could get the launcher as a stand alone, it would probably lack a radar but would at the very least still have optical guidance

I mostly see you crying.

Of course you’d say that. You are a US main.

are all on Trucks

the G6 is an actually armoured platform

Datalink mast, used to communicate with Radar, Command vehicle and the missiles it fired.

That’s not what you said though.

And the ItO is using the Patria Pasi APC. Not a truck.

Sure, then Tornado F3 with ASRAAM vs F-15C with Aim-9M is a fair fight

Question; there is no more room for branches on the French tech tree, so… I assume the BeNeLux ground vehicles will just be spread across the tree? With the Leopards on the AMX-40 line, etc.

they might reorganise the tree to make space, I know when they added the SA to the british tree they used it as an opportunity to move a bunch of tanks around to different branches (its how I had the warrior but ddint have the striker or the swing fire)

The Leopards can be jammed in between the AMX-30/32 and Leclercs.

Or they can be after the AMX-40 as a seperate tree to the Leclercs.

what I say and what you understand can be diffrent

We are not even close to ready enough for IIR seekers. People are already having meltdowns over the early ARH missiles and you are suggesting IIR???

I said it should only get 9X IF the f15i gets python 4, which is extremely unlikely so 9m is guaranteed
