It can’t, because to be out of range of Pantsyr, you will need to be out of 20 kilometers, and as we have flying brick and not nimble fighter, adding additional kilometer for maneuver, and that with each second with our slow missile flying towards the target we will pass kilometer after kilometer, we will get into problem, model drawing problem, and also a problem that we just won’t be able to track this target, so we have to use our hands to correct our sight to get Pantsyr killed.
So no, you’re wrong, these are two different situations. KH-38 does have much higher speed, KH-38 doesn’t have enemy that makes its host fly dozen kilometers away (And this makes you have less kills, less probability of hit and etc), no, it is not the same
They can give it IR only, but they will have to limit its amount, because in full load, you will just destroy entire teams, and will have another rack of these ready to do it again
One idea i have that’d really make ARB a cooker would be placing those on left and right flanks to make attackers more useful and allow for more strategic paths to be opened up as the match progresses
So far, from the perspective of a ground player, the Su-34 seems to be the only upgrade for it’s nation so far of the new cas planes.
The Gr.4 still seems worse overall than the SAAF 39C and so far the F-15E seems more of a sidegrade to the F-16C. Can’t speak about the 2000D RMV that was on the leak list of course.
